What is a Teen Advisory Board? A Teen Advisory Board is a group of 20 young adults willing to become involved in the functioning of the Library to make the library more appealing for their peers. Who can be on the Board? Board members may be any student in grades 6-12 who completes an application, obtains parental permission and holds a library card. Siblings are not allowed. When does the Board meet? Meetings will be held on the 3rd Wednesday of the month from 5:00 pm to 5:45 pm, August through May. Applications may be picked up at the Library information desks or printed from the bottom of this web page. Submit your completed application during June and July for the upcoming Board. Once selected, applicants will serve one school year. Once the 20 slots have been filled, any remaining qualified applicants will be placed on a waiting list in the event an opening becomes available. If you have additional questions please contact the Young Adult Library Associate, Jeri Turrin, at 457-2601.
