Volunteer at GWL

Some women choose to donate their time, energy and expertise to the Library. Glasgow Women’s Library has always grown with the support of volunteers, and women with knowledge of archiving, databases, D.I.Y. and design all regularly offer their expertise.

We will be posting requests for volunteers with specific skills or for specfic tasks in the section below. If you would like to be contacted about other ways that you can support our work, or would like to be mailed with information about volunteering at GWL, please contact us. If you are interested in any of the Volunteer Posts displayed below, please download and fill in the GWL Volunteer Application Form and send the completed form back to: Glasgow Women’s Library, 2nd Floor, 81 Parnie Street, Glasgow, G1 5RH.
