Happy Teentober! What is Teentober? It’s a nationwide celebration hosted by libraries in October celebrating you, the teens. We also want to promote our teen services to help you learn new skills and fuel your passions in and outside the library. Here are some of our services that you can use at our library.
• Computer Lab – Our computer lab has computers and large tables that you can use for homework.
• Teen-led Clubs – We have multiple clubs led by your fellow teens. Dungeons & Dragons, Card Club, and Anime Club are a few we offer. Contact the Teen Room for more information!
• Technology – We have an array of technology in the Teen Room that helps teens learn new skills, fuel your passions and just have fun with. We have a 3D printer, 3D pens, Ozobots and more.
• Volunteer Program– We offer a teen volunteer program to anyone in grades 7 and up. All you have to do is fill out an application and attend a training and orientation. Volunteering helps you try new activities and learn new skills. It also prepares you for the job world.
• Books– Of course, we have books. Did you know that reading what you want reduces stress, increases your knowledge and vocabulary and helps with memory? Check out our fiction and nonfiction books, graphic novels, manga, and magazine collection.
• Safe Place to hang out– We offer a welcoming atmosphere and environment for you to hang out, read, and play games.
