Volunteering with our libraries is a great way to connect with your community, make a difference, and grow your skills and confidence.
Due to high demand, we’re not currently accepting new volunteer applications. We aim to update this page in October 2026. Thank you for your interest.
There are lots of other ways to volunteer in the borough of Rochdale.

Work experience gives you the opportunity to gain practical skills, learn what work is really like, and see what kinds of jobs might suit you.
You can request a work experience placement with a number of council departments including the library.
