  • All of our staff are volunteers who give a few hours or days a month to keep the store open!
  • Most are alumnae of Bryn Mawr College, but not all! Our volunteers also include alumnae of other colleges and universities, and several high school and Georgetown students.
  • All of us love books. If you love books too, find out how you can become a volunteer!

How to Volunteer

  • Lantern volunteers work anywhere from 1-2 days a week to 1-2 shifts a month. We are very flexible.
  • Volunteers must work 4 shifts a year, and be able to access email on a consistent basis.
  • To find out more, come into the shop, chat with a staff member about the nature of the work and the schedule, and leave your name and email address for us to follow up.
  • Or, send us a message by email.
  • We will follow up with you and provide more information.
