Thank you for your interest in the Wood Dale Public Library volunteer program. 

Here at the Wood Dale Public Library, we are thrilled to offer a volunteer program that allows individuals, ages 13 and older, the opportunity to gain valuable service skills, while making a difference in the lives of others. Volunteer opportunities are available whether you are seeking required volunteer hours for school, court-appointed community service, or just giving back to the community.
