Everything Awesome Comes From New York

Okay, well not everything. But I can definitely name a few.. This is the newest awesome thing from the Big Apple. It's a list of all sorts of awesome (okay, maybe I should look through a thesaurus for some new words..*) books for teens from the teens at the New York Public Library. It's called Stuff for the Teen Age 2009 and it has books in different categories with lots of book talks by New York teens about the books. Check it out!

Hope you're all having a great weekend, and are excited about going back to school Monday!
Don't Forget to be Awesome!

* Looked up awesome in a thesaurus:

adjective

Far beyond what is usual, normal, or customary: exceptional, extraordinary, magnificent, outstanding, preeminent, rare, remarkable, singular, towering, uncommon, unusual. Informalstandout. Slangout of sight.

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...
