[Michlib-l] Compilation: Volunteer Handbooks

[Stanczak, Cindy]

Thank you, all!  Here's what I received and what we developed (draft).

Hi Cindy,
>
> I don't have a volunteer handbook here at Royal Oak, but I do have a
>> pro-tip about hiring youth volunteers: make sure they are over age 14 and
>> have a valid work permit from their school.  We weren't doing that and were
>> unknowingly breaking MI labor law.  Now our librarian who works with the
>> teens has a stack of them pre-filled out with the library's information
>> that we can give to them when they fill out an application.
