Volunteer at ER&L

Updated September 30, 2025:

We have reached the capacity of volunteer applications. For applications sent after this date, we will contact you if an opening becomes available.

Volunteers are the not-so-secret ingredient at ER&L. The ER&L conference is a friendly, niche, community-driven event created through the efforts of a dedicated team of libraryland volunteers and a small yet mighty staff led by our librarian founder. 

Our community is rich with knowledge in so many different ways. Our committee members and conference volunteers lend their own unique perspectives to our community. The opportunities to volunteer with ER&L are listed below. 

Committee Member

Committee members help shape not only the conference but the content we have available throughout the year in a multitude of ways. The committees available to join are:

  • Program Planning
  • Awards
  • Conference Experiences
  • Conference Logistics
  • Web

This is a larger commitment spanning at least one calendar year. 

Conference Volunteer

ER&L acknowledges that the cost of attending a conference may not be included in every individual’s or library’s budget. The volunteer opportunities include: 

  • Moderators
  • Registration Desk Attendants
  • Session Reporters
  • Pre-Conference Set Up
  • Social Event Host

In-person and Virtual roles are available.
