It's Friday 4:55 PM — The Main Library is currently open
The Teen Volunteer Application is currently closed; please check back in January/February 2026.
In order to volunteer at the Library, you must be a 7th through 12th grade student, and you must live or attend school in Montclair. You must inform the Youth Services Department if your availability changes or if you are no longer able to volunteer at the Library.
If you need additional hours, here is a list of other volunteer opportunities in and around Montclair.
During the school year, the Library will periodically host volunteer opportunities that are open to all teens in the Montclair area. You can check the Library Calendar to see when the next one is happening.
The Teen Advisory Board is currently full and is no longer accepting applications.
The Teen Advisory Board (TAB) is a group of teens who participate in and influence the functioning of the Library, with a focus on teen programming and teen Library materials. TAB is a forum to have your opinions and suggestions heard, and it is an opportunity to earn additional volunteer hours.
TAB meets the first Wednesday of every month from September to May, and meeting attendance is mandatory.
Teen Book Lists are two page documents that highlight books under a specific theme. They’re a great way to find new books to read and new genres to explore.
And now, you can create your own book lists for volunteer credit! This opportunity is open to all 7th to 12th grade students in the Montclair area.
Carefully read the instructions here before creating your book list.
