For 20 years volunteers have been at the heart of our work: without their dedication the library would not have become the successful and vibrant organisation it is.
An exciting new development in the recent history of the organisation has been the appointment of our first ever Volunteer Co-ordinator. Scottish Government funding was secured in April 2011 to develop a new model of volunteering based on a ‘cluster’ model. The four organisations comprising the cluster are Glasgow Women’s Library, Move On, Amina: the Muslim Women’s Resource Centre, and Diversity Films.
The partner organisations are all keen to develop their work with volunteers and are committed to working closely to share ideas, resources and expertise across the cluster. This is all helping to ensure that we make best use of our volunteers’ knowledge and expertise while providing them with rewarding volunteering opportunities which build their confidence, and allow them to gain new experiences and skills.
