Carnegie Libraries was the place I began my volunteer career and a social life in Pittsburgh. The libraries function as community centers. They offer programs and services that give you the opportunities to meet new people and make new friends. If you love reading, writing or want to learn or teach language libraries are excellent places to volunteer and make new friends.
