If you're currently a student in grades 9-12, we want you to join Greenwich Library's Teens4Teens student advisory committee.
Students from grades 9-12 can take part in using Greenwich Library's resources to initiate, develop and realize programs relevent to their particular age group as well as contributing to the community. Teens4Teens members will attend monthly meetings at Teen Central on the second floor and be prepared to submit proposals for programs and services they believe will be of interest for their peers.
These programs and services will include setting up author talks and concerts in the library, creating online web sites and eNewsletters, and creating/scheduling book clubs, poetry readings, art shows, mentoring, film/video festivals and summer reading programs, among other options. And when you join Teens4Teens, you're also eligible for Community Service credit!
The first Teens4Teens meeting will be on Wednesday, January 18 beginning at 4:00 pm in the Teen Central area on the second floor. Future meetings will be held on the first Wednesday of every month at the same time and location. Yes, we'll have refreshments. All you have to bring to the meeting are ideas. For more info, call Ed or Everett at (203) 622-7918 or (203) 635-6507, or check out our entry at the Student Employment Service page here. If you feel the library isn't meeting your needs or those of your friends and classmates, now's your chance to do something about it! See you on the 18th!
