Community Effort<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Lincolnville Community Library was built by a large team of skilled volunteers and professionals and continues to rely on donations from individuals, businesses and foundations and on the work of volunteers to keep its services and programs thriving. 
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Be a Volunteer<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Volunteers help support the library in many ways. We welcome people interested in helping with book sales and other fundraising efforts, baking for programs, tending the gardens, and participating in special projects. We also need volunteers eighteen and older to help with staffing the library fifteen hours a week. For more information, call the library at 706-3896 or e-mail questions@lincolnvillelibrary.org<\/a>.
