Guidelines:

Be very clear as to what you are willing to do. You make your own volunteer rules, and you can always choose to stray outside your boundaries as you work with requesters. Do as little or as much as you choose.

If there is a charge for your service, you must state that for the requester. Requesters should not have "surprises" in this area. Parking fees, public transportation, copying costs, or the price of admission or donation to a Historical Society, etc. are reasonable charges, but you can also waive those if you wish. Also, some volunteers charge for gas if they are obtaining resources far from their home or outside of the stated area. Items that are not acceptable on this volunteer site are charges for your time, "per hour" fees or using Gen Gathering to sell your products.

You must also inform the requester as to the approximate wait time for their request.
