Volunteer
Drop in on our volunteer meetings every Wednesday evening at 8pm The Iron Rail is operated by an all volunteer collective. We operate under the belief that projects can and should be run in a non-authoritarian manner. The store has no owner and no bosses. Decisions are made at weekly meetings of the collective with input from all people present. There are many ways to be involved with the Iron Rail such as becoming a collective member and doing shifts, stopping by to help shelve books, maintaining the computers, cleaning the space or hosting an event. We are more then welcome to provide space for people wanting to host things like, books readings, movie nights, meetings, lectures, workshops and the whatever you can think of. Just come to a meeting and propose your event and arrange to have a collective member staff during the event. Sorry, we cannot host concerts. What does one do during a shift? Open the store from 1-7PM, reshelf returned books after checking them in, keep the place clean, answer questions, check out books, sell stuff, help maintain a library-like environment, etc. Collective members must be willing and able to come to meetings and keep up on the changes and be a part of the decision making process of the space.
