CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS

NTTBF event planners are looking to the community for adult volunteer help. Organizers need volunteers ages 18 and older to help on March 5 as bus and lobby greeters, traffic and room monitors, and assisting with books sales, the photo booth and signing lines.

Online volunteer registration will be accepted through March 1. Call (972) 721-4612 for more information about volunteering.

Contributions help bring in more than 50 authors each year to the festival and provide more than 500 free books to teens from low-income communities.
