Get Involved
There are a number of ways you can get involved with helping the Dennis Public Library.
Volunteer
The library is always looking for dedicated people to volunteer. In as little as two hours per week, you can make a big difference in your library by helping the staff shelve books, process materials, assist with programs, work the circulation desk, help in the Children's Room, and more. Just call or stop by to find out about our training schedule and how you can help.
Join the FRIENDS of the Dennis Public Library
Book sales. Used books, both paper-back and hard cover, are on sale in the Library at low prices. All proceeds go to the Friends.
Engraved bricks. Bricks engraved with a 3-line message of the buyer’s choice, costing $125, are installed in the walkway to the Library. Order forms are available at the Friends desk.
Authors Friday. This free lecture series, which runs from spring to fall, features authors from Cape Cod or whose books are related to the area.
