Part time residents are welcome to volunteer and are asked to submit their availability to the coordinator so that the schedule may be configured to accommodate them. The schedule is published in three month increments, giving Lectors time to plan accordingly for their service or to secure a substitute if they are unable to fulfill the assignment given.
