Help The Bookery with 20 volunteers for Book covering to prepare them for the libraries
Here's a little more info about this opportunity...
Covering the books to give them a longer life is a very important step in preparing the books for the libraries. We aim to issue 3500-4500 books to each school library we create and support. That's a lot of labour needed on a weekly basis.
Helpful tips
Stay safe
- 1. Don’t pass any personal information to people you haven’t met offline before.
- 2. When meeting one of your contacts offline for the first time, always be sure to arrange to meet in a public place.
- 3. Make sure that you are not left alone with someone that you have never met before.
- 4. Know where you’re going. If you’re headed off the beaten track or into an unfamiliar part of town, be sure you have directions and a GPS or map book.
- 5. If you feel unsafe, consult the person in charge and let him or her know.
- 6. Avoid wearing expensive jewellery: it could get damaged, lost or stolen.
- 7. Ask, ask, ask! If you’re worried about something or concerned about your safety in a certain situation, ask the person in charge.
