Now Rutland County Council has cropped its staff total, it is now looking to boost this once more with Volunteer Opportunities.
They are asking:
Could you give up sometime to help out in your local library?
They say you will gain from volunteering in Rutland Libraries.
A chance to meet people, Oakham Library still bans talking accept when they have the pre school group in when every effort by staff to keep silence is thrown out the window, especially if there is a birthday celebrations don't mind this rule, if anyone has visited Stamford Library you will noticed most rules have been binned and it can be a very noisy place at times.
They say its an opportunity to learn more about books and the library service, it will give you a sense of achievement with helping people from different backgrounds, and different ages. access a library and choose their next read.
Experience to add to a CV.
I noticed charity shops are now starting to create more paid positions because they are failing to attract volunteers. If there is a need for these staff I think Rutland County Council should be paying.
They will be offering Volunteers support, A induction to the library Service, Support and guidance for your role, Training on their procedures relevant to the role, agreed out of pocket expenses where relevant, An opportunity to attend volunteer coffee mornings, some roles may have additional training opportunities. All the above is offered to paid staff.
There are opportunities available right now at Oakham Library.
How to apply?
Take a look at the volunteering opportunities on the "do-it" website at http://www.do.it.org.uk/
A couple of Oakham Volunteering Job descriptions clearly match those responsibilities once carried out by paid staff.

Barleythorpe Road, Oakham, Residents, Question Rutland County Council, Parking, Parks School
Barleythorpe Road Oakham, Residents Question Rutland County Council, Parking, Parks School
Residents from Barleythorpe Road, questioned Rutland County Council.
For many years residents have enjoyed a unwritten informal agreement, they can park their cars in the school grounds, so not to cause traffic problems along the Barleythorpe Road.
Residents want confirmation they would be able to continue this arrangement once the school has closed.
The deputy leader Councillor Terry King answered residents concerns and said he would discuss the matter with property services.
Later in the meeting Cllr King answering a similar question from Councillor Gale, let slip Rutland County Council obviously knew what they had planned for the site, when the security the site was mentioned, he said it may have to be locked when it was used for storage.
It is my understanding the highways depot is closing and the offices returning to the main council offices.
They have no place to store the trucks and other vehicles. I wonder if they are going to be stored at the Parks School site.
