Welcome back everyone! As you might have noticed we've made a few changes in the teen area. We have new carpets and a few new lamps to spruce things up! I hope you enjoy them. The teen area also has a few tray tables you can use to do homework on, feel free to take them anywhere in the teen library!

There are lots of exciting and fun events happening this fall, so make sure to check them out!
