    Description

    Children’s Picture Book Relabeling

    The children's picture book relabeling project is a physical relabeling project of picture books at the East Branch Library (115 Broadway). The work involves standing and stooping, with an ability to follow directions and paying close attention to detail. The volunteer will work in the Children's area, removing existing spine labels and affixing new spine labels on picture books. They will need to be able to read to accurately determine the author's name, in order to use the correct spine label. Taping is also involved. We tape over the new labels.
