Why are you interested in volunteering at NAPL?

Do you have any allergies or medical conditions we should be aware of for your safety?

Volunteering at NAPL requires a PA State Criminal Check and a PA Child Abuse History Clearance, which are FREE for volunteers. If you have lived in PA for 10 years or less, you are also required to obtain an FBI Criminal History Record Check. Please use our Contact Form or email info@northamptonapl.org for more information about the FBI Criminal History Record Check.

Act 34 State Criminal Check: When you access this site, click "New Record Check (Volunteers Only)." This is how you get your clearance without delay. When the screen allows you to access and open your actual record/certificate, please print this out and submit it as your clearance. You will not receive any further documentation from the state. This is your clearance. https://epatch.pa.gov/home

Act 151 Child Abuse History Clearance: Please create an "Individual Account," or use your Keystone ID to log in. Keystone IDs can only be made once and are associated with you for life. If you cannot remember your Keystone ID/PPID, it is very difficult to retrieve. Either write it down and keep it somewhere safe or take a photo of it on your phone. Once logged in, choose the option "Access My Clearances," then read the disclosures and click "Continue." Choose the option to "Create Clearance Application," read the information on the next page, and click "Begin." Choose the first option for "Volunteer Having Contact with Children," select "Other" for the "Volunteer Category," and type in "Northampton Area Public Library" before clicking "Next" and proceeding with the required information. https://www.compass.dhs.pa.gov/cwis/public/home
