Vaughan Public Libraries occasionally offers volunteer opportunities to those looking to help others in their community. Volunteers must have completed grade 8 and be a minimum of 14 years of age to apply. Volunteers must successfully complete an interview. Any volunteer that is 18 years of age or older is required to obtain a Police Vulnerable Sector Check (PVSC).
Chess Club returns at VMC (Thursday evenings), Maple (Thursday evenings), and Vellore Village (Saturday afternoons) branches. Chess Club volunteers work with participating children to instruct in playing chess or improving their game.
Our Chess Club volunteers are knowledgeable and enthusiastic about Chess. This program runs in association with local non-profit Chess in the Library and volunteers apply through them. Select "New Volunteers Form" at the link if you have never volunteered with Chess in the Library before: Apply for Chess Club on external site. Volunteers must have completed Grade 8 and be 14+.
