WARSAW — Warsaw Community Public Library’s Board of Trustees approved updates to the library’s volunteer policy during a Nov. 14 meeting.

One update clarifies classifications for junior and senior volunteers at the library. The clarification is as follows: “Junior volunteers are students in seventh and eighth grade. Senior volunteers are students in ninth grade through age 17. Once a volunteer turns 18, they must fill out a criminal/background check to continue volunteering at the library. Junior and senior volunteers are supervised by the Children’s Department and/or the Community Outreach Department.”

Prior to its regular meeting, the board held a public hearing on WCPL’s computer usage and Internet acceptable use policy. No one from the public attended the hearing, and the policy, which had no changes, was approved during the regular meeting.

In other business, this month, WCPL will close at 5 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 24, and will reopen at 10 a.m. Monday, Nov. 28. The closing is in observance of Thanksgiving.

The board’s next meeting is at 4 p.m. Monday, Dec. 12.
