Words
on Wheels
Let
"Words on Wheels" bring the library to you! *
If you have
difficulty walking, carrying books, seeing titles of books on
shelves or are unable to drive and expect to need help for at
least four months, Words on Wheels can visit you once a month!
Interested in volunteering?
The Words on
Wheels program of staff and volunteers bring materials to people
who can't get to the library.
How it
Works:

Would you like to share your love of reading with someone
who cannot use the library?
Our volunteers are at least 18 years old,
have reliable transportation which they use to deliver materials,
and agree to select, deliver, and return library materials to at
least one shut-in patron at least once a month, for one year. Training
is provided and takes about an hour. The time commitment is about
2-4 hours a month.
For more information contact Susan LaFantasie
at 425-369-3235 or 1-877-905-2008.
