It’s
an incredible time to be a teen at Tompkins County Public Library. With the
construction of our brand new teen center underway, a visionary Teen Services
librarian on staff and amazing programs being planned for the coming months,
the opportunities for young adults to connect and grow with TCPL are endless!
We’re
doing our part to make the Library an amazing place for young people, but we
know that the people who can really help to ensure the success of our Teen
Services are teens themselves. That’s why we’re inviting young adults in grades
6 to 12 to join our award-winning Junior Library Advisory Council (JLAC).
JLAC
members earn community service and leadership development credit by supporting,
advising and advocating for services for young adults and teens. Activities
include, helping the Library to choose books, planning events, decorating for
holidays, representing TCPL at programs like Wizarding Weekend, and working on
special projects throughout the year.
The
first meeting of the fall will be held Wednesday, September 6 from 4:30 to 5:30
p.m. where new and returning Council members will help to plan the October 13
unveiling of the Library’s teen center.
For
more information, contact Teen Services Librarian Regina DeMauro at rdemauro@tcpl.org or (607) 272-4557
extension 274.
