TEEN ADVISORY BOARD

	What does the Teen Advisory Board do? "Teenagers in grades 7 through 12 are more than welcome. But what does TAB do? Well, TAB members help the library plan programs and suggest books and music that other teens would be interested in. Our TAB members picked the design and colors of the Teen Lounge neon sign, as well as decided on the color for the room and made the bulletin board that hangs in there. They made ornaments for the Lake Wonderland Winter Festival, decided on prizes and a theme for the Summer Reading Club, volunteered for events like the Harry Potter release party and because of all their hard work they received the Des Plaines Super Star Volunteer Award. TAB meets for 1 hour each month (snacks provided of course!) and plans what our upcoming events should be. Meetings are usually on the third Monday of every month at 4:30, in the third floor Teen Lounge. Stop by, have a snack, meet some new people, and share what you think the library should do." You don't have to register, sign up, call anybody or email anybody -- just show up at the next TAB meeting and get involved. Have questions or want more details? Email the Teen Advisory Board.
