Volunteer orientation for the GELA Prison Libraries Project

All are welcome to a volunteer orientation for the Greater Edmonton Library Association Prison Libraries Project!

Tuesday, April 10
7-8:30pm
Coutts Library https://library.ualberta.ca/locations/coutts
Education Building South (east end)
University of Alberta

contact: gelaprisonproject@gmail.com
You MUST RSVP to the event by email.

This will be a general orientation to:

  • GELA’s history
  • ethos / ethics of the project
  • current and proposed programs
  • discussion of skills we need
  • discussion of where we can welcome volunteers right now

*Note: we will hold this orientation once every 2 months. If we don’t receive an RSVP for April 10, by at least one potential volunteer, we will cancel, and instead wait for another 2 months for the next. Please confirm with us if you plan to attend.

If you have just started volunteering, you are still welcome to come; this session will hopefully give you some context of how we work and how we hope to sustain and grow this work.
