Whether you’re assisting patrons at the front desk, organizing our extensive collection, helping with events, or contributing your tech or marketing skills, your efforts directly impact the Library’s ability to thrive and expand its reach.

We offer flexible opportunities to fit your schedule and interests. Join us and experience the profound satisfaction of giving back to a unique institution that fosters learning, connection, and celebration of the LGBTQ+ community. Your time and passion are the heart of Quatrefoil Library.
