Updates to this blog's side bar--and prizes!

If you look to the right side of this blog --> You'll see that I have a few fun or informational things for you to look at/use. There is first of all, a cute picture from the Christmas party (post-snowball fight!), then there is a list of our up-coming events and the dates they'll take place on, after that is a list of interesting blog's of YA authors or book reviews--if you're ever stuck wondering what to read next these are excellent places to look! Then I've got some useful links to fun websites like freerice.com and Teen Ink- a magazine that has only articles and work written by teens. Then there's a little About Sti thing, because I know you need to know more :P and there's also a few random selections from My Bookshelf so you can see what books I've been reading and enjoyed!

Okay, here's where the prizes come in! If you have time, explore a few of the links I've put up and tell me which you've liked best or give me a suggestion of a blog or website I should feature for you and the other teens who read this blog!

I know Kathleen and Mallory are already on board! dftba, Sti

First Blog Ever!

I chose the name Book Bag after looking at the names of some other libraries' blog titles, but if there is a better name out there, let me know! I created this blog primarily so you can find out what activities are coming up for the 11-16 age group here at the library. I'll be posting brief descriptions of our activities, photos, book reviews, and other interesting things that I happen to see. In recent news: the TAG Christmas party was December 8, and everyone worked together to make it a success. Thanks to all the hardworking volunteers! We ate holiday snacks, sang Christmas karaoke, and had a snowball fight outside! Check out the library's Flickr site for all the pictures. We're taking a brief break during the Christmas holidays, but we'll be starting up again on January 11 with personalizing snack dishes to use every week. Instead of throwing away bowls and cups after our Fr...
