National Volunteers Week is celebrated 17-23 May. Volunteers are the backbone of the Bega Valley. The lives of almost every person in the shire, and those of our visitors, are enriched in some way through the dedicated work of our generous volunteers. We recognise this in our libraries every day of the week when our wonderful library volunteers come to help with homework club, technology help, shelving, Library Link home deliveries, and more!

This year we have some very special presenters! Read all about it by clicking  here .
