Online Library Champions Information Session

New Immigrants Helping Other New Immigrants

Many new immigrants are not using libraries and do not know about all of the wonderful services and programs that libraries offer. As a volunteer Library Champion, you will share information about library programs and services with new immigrants and encourage them to become library users.

As a Library Champion, you will:

• Expand your knowledge of library services and programs
• Build communication and presentation skills
• Make a valuable contribution to the community
• Receive a certificate of achievement upon completion of the Library Championship
• Get a volunteer work reference for the period of active Library Championship

Become a Library Champion! To be a Surrey Library Champion, you must:

• Live in Surrey
• Be an immigrant: permanent and temporary residents and naturalized citizens are eligible
• Want to volunteer
• Love libraries and helping other people
• Be 19 years or older

This will be an online information session using Zoom.

Presented in partnership with NewToBC.
