This is a sample of the technology the TEEN ZONE offers its teen patrons.

The Teen Zone has a great collection for teens of fiction and nonfiction books, books on tape/CD, magazines, graphic novels/manga and games for teens. Check out the special displays highlighting new books! (And btw, the Teen Librarian gets a lot of ideas from what the Library buys from the teens themselves! If you have a great idea for something the Teen Zone should own contact the Teen Librarian!)

See the Teen Events page for this month’s events.
