2013 Teen Summer Reading Program
Love to read or listen to audiobooks? Put your reading passion to work for you by participating in the teen summer reading program, “Beneath the Surface.” The program for teens in grade 7 and up begins Monday, July 1st, and continues until Friday, August 9th. Win gift certificates and free DVD rentals! For every two hours that you read or listen, you are eligible to win a prize. Check it out in the Teen Zone at the library.
Teen Summer Volunteers
Each summer we look for teen volunteers, ages 12 and up and/or entering the 7th grade, to help younger children at the Summer Reading Club table. This year’s theme is “Dig into Reading.” Volunteers are needed from June 25th to August 7th. If you would like to volunteer, fill out our online form by Monday, June 3rd.
Community Service
If your school or religious organization encourages you to volunteer for a community group, talk to the children’s services supervisor about helping with activities such as straightening shelves, labeling books and movies, or preparing crafts materials for library programs.
The library has an active Teen Advisory Board (TAB) for high school students. TAB helps develop library programs, and recommends age-appropriate materials for the library to buy for its collection. The group meets monthly during the school year. If you want to join, fill out and submit the application form below.
