    Volunteer

    The Bookmark Bookstore is always seeking volunteers!

    Our volunteers do a variety of chores during their three hour-per-week shifts. These tasks include receiving, unpacking and pricing donations; shelving new books and culling old stock; keeping certain areas alphabetized; general upkeep, and most importantly – ringing up sales! One of the best parts of the job is simply chatting with our customers and other staffers about books, books, books (not to mention the 50% discount on books that all volunteers receive)!

    The next time you’re in the store shopping, take a few minutes to talk with our volunteers and see first-hand what they do. We are all very proud to be a part of the Bookmark’s operation.

    The Bookmark currently has openings for the following shifts:

    Fridays 12:30 – 3:00 pm
    Saturdays 12:30 – 3:00 pm

    To get more info or to join our ranks, call Store Manager Bob Frey at (510) 444-0473.
