Volunteer with us
The Kansas City Public Library allows teens between the ages of 12 and 18 to volunteer. If you are interested in this opportunity, please talk to the teen volunteer coordinator at your branch to learn if they have volunteer openings.
Interested in Tabletop Games?
Our librarians share some of their favorites, along with tips and tricks on how to play. We also recommend similar games, called Play Alikes, to keep the fun going! You can also search by game type (deck building, cooperative, etc.) or what 21st Century Skill each game teaches.
