How to buy your Volunteer (TAB) Shirt (required)
All teen Volunteers are required to follow our Employee Dress code (the casual side of "business casual" i.e.medium to longer skirts or pants/jeans without tears, but no leggings, sweats, or shorts) and to wear TAB shirts when volunteering in public events. You can order your shirt online for about $14 at Cincinnati Team Apparel. We wear these shirts when we lead programs or work away from the library. The design doesn’t change year to year, so this is usually a one-time purchase (unless you grow…). In general, if you can wear it to work out, then it's too casual for volunteering at the library. If you are volunteering outdoors in temperatures over 75F, then you can wear longer shorts instead of pants.
Order your TAB shirt (long or short-sleeved, your choice) as soon as you receive your welcome email. It takes about a week to be made and you can't volunteer in a public-facing shift without it. You'll pick it up from Cincinnati Team Apparel, not the library. It takes a week to make your shirt. There are none waiting on a rack in the store. Since the shirts are custom made, there are no returns.
