Library Team Picks

Need some reading ideas? Why not stop in and check out a few hand-picked books from our shelves? Volunteers share some of their favorite reads available at the library.

Help Your Library Thrive – Volunteer With Us!

We’re seeking community members to join us in keeping the library strong, vibrant, and visible!

Volunteer Suggestions:

  • Library Volunteer: Volunteer at the library during various shifts. Must be willing to be background checked. No experience necessary.

  • Library Program Leader: We could use a book club, discussion group, and anything else you want to start!

  • Summer Reading Helpers: We need a few adults to take on small tasks in order to get this program moving forward. Also, if you have teens needing community service, why not help with our local library?

  • Pass out flyers: We still have areas in northwest C. Springs that do not know that our library is open and ready for them. Hang up flyers or hand out flyers in northwest C. Springs. We also want volunteers to hand out flyers around town, letting more people know about COS Reads.

  • Attend meetings: We are considering starting a regular carpool signup, as it is much more “fun” to go as a group. Please help to magnify our speakers’ voices by coming to City Council, County Commissioners, and/or PPLD Board of Trustees meetings. Okay, not fun, but necessary in order to get things done.

  • Email Supporters: If anyone signs up for this, we can create a group email where we send out weekly emails, offering ideas as to what to email about. Short emails actually work best!

  • Your Ideas: Sky’s the limit! Let us know how you would like to help COS Reads and/or our community’s library.

✉️ Email us at saverockrimmonlibrary@gmail.com with the position you're interested in. Or, use our sign-up form to the right.

If you sign up, your next step is to wait for us to contact you. THANK YOU!

About our library

We are a community-driven, volunteer-run space born from the 2024 “Save Rockrimmon Library” grassroots campaign. After Pikes Peak Library District (PPLD) permanently closed the Rockrimmon Library, residents of Northwest Colorado Springs came together to restore library access and create a hub for local connection. Located at 950 Vindicator Rd, our library offers a book-lending program and hosts community events. We proudly operate independently and are not affiliated with PPLD.
