You actually have paid employees? Aren’t you all volunteers?

The library needs volunteers and uses hundreds of hours every month for special projects, data entry, help with programs and children’s activities, delivery of books to the homebound, shelving materials and more.

Apart from our volunteers, the library is operated by staff. There are nearly 100 employees under the direction of professional librarians (who hold at least one master's degree). They work seven days a week, sometimes from six A.M. to midnight, and staff five service points, answer questions, run programs, check-out and reshelve material, and maintain a facility used by over a thousand people daily.
