At the Southlake Public Library, we are incredibly fortunate to have a passionate and dedicated group of volunteers who are instrumental in keeping our library vibrant and welcoming. From shelving your favorite books to ensuring our space remains inviting, their contributions are invaluable. Our volunteers are also at the heart of our special projects, working closely with librarians to create programs that foster learning, creativity, and joy within our community. 

One standout example of their efforts was our Summer Reading Program, which saw over 2,000 enthusiastic participants. Thanks to our volunteers, registration ran smoothly, and prizes were distributed to our eager young readers. Each volunteer's dedication adds a unique chapter to the ongoing story of our library’s impact on the community. 

We extend our deepest gratitude to every volunteer for their hard work and for helping to create unforgettable experiences this summer. Your commitment has truly made a difference! 

If you're inspired to join this amazing team of volunteers, we have opportunities available year-round. To learn more about how you can contribute, please visit our volunteer page on the Southlake Public Library website. 

Thank you for being a part of our story! 

Volunteers are an invaluable part of keeping the City of Southlake running smoothly.

Although opportunities to volunteer for the City have declined due to Covid-19, the Southlake Public Library had a few opportunities for volunteers to serve and remain safe.

Sohan Shrestha is a senior at Carroll Senior High School and has been volunteering at the Southlake Public Library since 2019. He has contributed roughly 60 hours in volunteer work at the Library this year alone.

“He’s a great volunteer,” Southlake Public Library Deputy Director Cynthia Pfledderer said. “We are so happy to have him and the rest of our volunteers as part of our team.”

Library volunteers are helping to disinfect and shelve library materials.

“Volunteering for the library has been a great experience,” Shrestha said. “I have been able to serve my community while also gaining experience for the future.”
