The Library Youth Ambassadors of Arlington Public Library began in Fall 2018 as a way for teens to provide input on library programs and services. This group is open to all teens who live or attend school in the City of Arlington. Teens are required to register as approved City volunteers (link to volunteer page) so that they may receive volunteer hours from the library. City of Arlington requires that all volunteers be at least 14 years old to volunteer independently. Due to this requirement, Library Youth Ambassadors must be at least 14 years old to participate in the program.
Meetings are on the 1st and 3rd Thursday during the school year from 5:30 PM to 6:30 PM. Members must attend 60% of the meetings to remain active.
Applications for Library Youth Ambassadors for the 2024 - 2025 school year are now closed. Please reach out to LIBYouthServices@arlingtontx.gov with any questions.
