The North Dakota State Library is blessed to have a truly remarkable group of people, our volunteers. As you may know, the North Dakota State Library offers many unique programs for persons with physical, visual, or reading impairments. Without the support from our volunteers, these services would not be possible. The Dakota Radio Information Service (DRIS) provides daily broadcasts of local newspapers and special programming.  The Talking Book Services provides talking books, magazines, and large print to North Dakota citizens who are unable to read standard print.  Both of these programs rely on volunteers to keep the daily operations running smoothly. Others volunteer with our Circulation Department, helping us keep track of our materials. Some of the volunteer positions include:

Dakota Radio Information Service (DRIS)

  • Radio Announcers - Reading newspaper articles, grocery ads, and feature columns for the DRIS broadcast. 
  • Radio Repair - Basic repair of radio receivers, an ideal volunteer job for those who know something about electronics.

Talking Books Services

  • Book and Magazine Narrators - Record fiction and nonfiction books, North Dakota Magazines, and other requested materials.
  • Circulation Assistants- Assist staff with the daily circulation of talking books.  These duties include shelving, book inspection, tape repair, and a host of other duties.

If you live in the Bismarck area and are interested in volunteering, please contact the Volunteer Coordinator at 701-328-2185.
