Help us find new Book Nook homes in Worcester's neighborhoods

We're looking for businesses — barbershops, laundromats, community centers, and more — willing to host a Book Nook. You'll go out in pairs, share our story, and leave the door open for a lasting partnership. We'll give you everything you need: a script, a flyer, business cards, water + a snack.

• Monday, September 21 | 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM
• Saturday, October 3 | 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM
• Monday, October 5 | 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM
• Wednesday, October 7 | 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM

Represent Community Book Nooks in the community

Join us at local farmers markets and community events to share our mission and connect with neighbors. You'll staff our table, hand out materials, and help us grow our community of supporters — no experience needed, just enthusiasm (really!).

Upcoming dates:

• Any Saturday through October 31, 2026 | 9:00 AM -- 12:00 PM (plus set-up/breakdown)
  REC Farmers Market at University Park, Worcester
  965 Main Street (across from Clark University)
  We don't need someone there every week -- even once or twice is great!

A recurring role for dedicated volunteers

Become a regular part of our team by checking in on existing Book Nooks and delivering fresh book supplies as needed. This flexible, ongoing role is perfect for someone who wants to stay connected to our work week to week — or even month to month. Delivery routes are in Worcester County and can often be combined with errands you're already running. If you're looking for a way to make a lasting difference without committing to a fixed schedule, this is it.
