Because we are operating in a limited physical space, we aren't using as many volunteers as we did previously. However, the Friends of Comfort Public Library gladly accept help at the Book Barn, our used book store, and we occasionally need help with special projects; plus, when we move into the newly remodeled area we'll need LOTS of help!
