Lending Library

The Resource Center lending library contains more than 2900 materials on volunteer and program management, tutoring, mentoring, diversity, team building, and other topics.

This specialized collection of materials is available to AmeriCorps programs, AmeriCorps*VISTA members, state commissions, Senior Corps programs, Learn and Serve America programs, national service training and technical assistance providers, and Corporation staff.

To borrow materials, you must fill out a library loan agreement for our records. Although library services are free to eligible participants, borrowers are responsible for the cost of shipping materials back to the Resource Center.
