Teens

The LLD provides a full range of services and materials for teens. The dedicated Teen Space provides high-interest, age-appropriate fiction and non-fiction, gaming, seating/meeting space, programming, and access to professional staff and technology. There are also excellent volunteer opportunities for teens throughout the year. Visit the LLD Teen Space for your educational and recreational pursuits!


Become a TAB member!

The Teen Advisory Board (TAB) makes recommendations to LLD staff regarding services that directly affect young adults in our community, while also assisting with projects in the Library. TAB members can earn volunteer hours, gain experience working in a group, and learn how to be a young leader in the community. 

TAB meets on the first Friday of every month and new teens are always welcome.
Please check the Library's event calendar to confirm TAB meeting times and dates.

If you want to make a positive impact and have fun with your peers along the way, then we want you to be on the Teen Advisory Board! To apply, fill out this application, and bring it to a TAB Meeting, drop it off at the service desk in the Youth Services Department, or scan and email it to: teen@lislelibrary.org. 

We look forward to seeing you at the next TAB meeting!
