“Voluntary action is a hallmark of civic society, rooted in citizenship and social responsibility, and shaped by our concern for and obligation to one another.”
From: The Report of the Advisory Board on the Voluntary Sector
Personal information on this form is collected under the authority of the Municipal Act, R.S.O. 1990, C.M. 45, as amended, and will be used to determine eligibility and suitability for volunteer work with the Whitchurch-Stouffville Public Library.
The Whitchurch-Stouffville Public Library Board recognizes the need to protect its vulnerable citizens, i.e. seniors, children and/or the intellectually challenged, as well as the Library’s assets and will therefore use Police Record Checks as a screening tool, where appropriate.
Volunteer applicants will be notified prior to selection if a Police Record Check is required. If required, the results of the Police Record Check must be provided prior to finalization of the selection; failure to do so will result in the candidate being declined.
Once a volunteer has completed 20 hours of service, the fee for processing the Police Record Check may be reimbursed by the Whitchurch-Stouffville Public Library.
