Fingerprinting

Please note, all volunteers over the age of 18 are required to be fingerprinted by the Nevada County Sheriff's Department prior to volunteering at a library. The library will pay for fingerprinting and therefore we ask for at least a six month commitment.

Interviews

The library branch volunteer coordinator will contact you to schedule an interview after they receive an application. Once the application is approved the applicant will be contacted to schedule fingerprinting.
