If you signed up for a reading program before you can use the same account Dive into some great books and keep track of the number you read, all while earning points toward a certificate of completion (the reading club ends on Aug. 23). You’ll also be eligible for a prize draw at the end of the summer. There’s also a recommended reading list and games you can play.

Register now and get on the right page for some fun in the sun reading.

Teen Programs

 

Teen Advisory Group (TAG) and Maker Group

Help us shape the programs and services offered in the library! Teen Advisory Group (TAG) members work on projects that are always different as the work is often based on members' interests. Some of the work we've done in the past include literary projects, such as book displays, contests and reviews, and we also have a Maker Group that focuses on emerging technologies. Teens are welcome to join both groups to maximize volunteer hour potential. Meetings happen twice a month on Wednesday evening from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. Volunteers must be between 13-18 years old.

Volunteers must be 14 years or older. Both teen and adult volunteers are welcome.

This program runs online from Sept - June.
