For Teens

TeenScene

TeenScene is our new room of the library designed just for teens. You can find it by the second-floor, Lake Avenue entrance.

TeenScene Open Hours

Tuesdays through Thursdays

3-7 p.m.

Schedule change: TeenScene will be closed on Thursday, May 25. It will reopen for its normal hours on Tuesday, May 30.

Stop in anytime during our open hours, or join us for any of our programs to check out the new space.

TeenScene Rules of Use

1. Weird is cool. Wild is not.
   This isn't a gym, a wrestling ring, or a parkour course. This is a library, so keep it chill.
2. Respect the room.
   Leave it looking at least as good as the way you found it, and go easy on the library's stuff.
3. Keep it PG-13.
   That goes for language and behavior. You're not little kids, but this is a shared space.
4. Don't be a jerk.
   It's that simple. If it's not working, you might need to leave for the day. Eat, sleep, and come back and try again. We'll see you then!

What is TeenScene for?

TeenScene is a space for you to be yourself and become yourself. No adults are allowed (with the exception of library staff), so you're free to use the space your way and even suggest ideas for it.

Things you can do in TeenScene include:

• Do homework or work on projects
• Use our computers — we have four Windows laptops and a Mac desktop
• Do arts and crafts — we have polymer clay, painting supplies, coloring tools, diamond dot art kits and more
• Hang out with friends (or make some new ones)
• Play video games — we have an Xbox S Series, a Nintendo Switch, a Wii and an Infinity Game Table
• Grab a book from the YA nook to read
• Perform karaoke

Of course, how you use it is up to you. It's your space, so come on in.
