Young Adult Collection

Fiction and nonfiction books, magazines, reference materials, and unabridged books-on-cassette for ages 12 to 18.

Volunteer Program

Pre-teens and teenagers are invited to sign up to be library volunteers.  Help with shelving, craft programs, computer assistance, and even give your opinion on what new items you feel the library should add to its collection.  Ideal for students age 11-18.

Reading Buddies

The library is in the process of starting a reading buddies program.  Interested students would be invited to come to the library after school and read to small groups of children and help them with a simple craft.  Great experience for students who feel they may be interested in the field of early education.  Library staff is on hand to supervise and assist at all times.  Also, speak with a librarian about participating in a library story time.
