Thank you for your interest in the Chattanooga Public Library's Adult Volunteer Program.

Currently, volunteer positions are reserved for people who live outside the City of Chattanooga, who are working towards a free card. If you are NOT volunteering to earn a free library card, please check back with us in a few months. We may have some openings in Fall 2025.

If you are a college student needing to volunteer for TN Achieves, TN Promise, or other scholarship/financial aid program, we are no longer accepting volunteers for this semester. We will start accepting college volunteers again in September 2025 for next semester.

The library no longer offers court-ordered community service hours.
