Do they accept volunteers on average? I should check. I need to build solidarity with my community, figured something like that might be nice.

Many libraries in the US have a Friends of the Library volunteer group, or something similar. I volunteer at two of our local branches.

Just a FYI that you might have to be fingerprinted or do a background check. That was required for our county, as we are sometimes in close proximity to children.

Luckily I have a clean background. I'll check it out.
