Portage District Library owes its very existence to volunteers from the community. Since the library’s establishment more than thirty years ago, volunteers have supplemented the efforts of paid library staff.

We have a Friends group that coordinates our quarterly book sales, a corps of volunteers who help provide and maintain quality library collections, services, programs, and facilities, and elected volunteers who serve as our governing board.

Our volunteer services create opportunities for people of all ages and walks of life to provide valuable services to the community, while gaining the personal satisfaction that comes from this kind of generosity. If you are interested in supporting your library, please contact us to find out more about volunteering.
