How It Works:
The Greenwood Toy Library is run by its members, overseen by a volunteer committee elected at the annual AGM. The committee takes on various roles and you can learn more about them by clicking here.
Members contribute to the operation of the toy library by participating in borrowing shifts, which involve checking toys in and out during library hours. Members are expected to help out twice a term, and these shifts are fun opportunities for members to see the library's toys and for children to play with them.
