Teen Summer Reading Club 2012! TSI: Realm of the Unknown

By
Okay, now for some happier news! It's summer, and that means our annual Teen Reading Club is happening! For those of you between the ages of 11 and 18, sign up in the Children's Department to start earning prizes for all the reading you're doing this summer. This year's theme is TSI: Teen Scene Investigation Realm of the Unknown



It doesn't matter if you're reading your ACT practice book, the newest dystopian fiction, required reading for school, and audiobook, or a stack of skateboarding magazines-anything counts! Simply keep track of the time you spend writing and record it on your reading log, then come in for your prizes! Easy!


And if you're looking for stuff to do when you're not reading, come join us for our YA summer programs! Every Wednesday and Friday at 3:30 we'll be exploring the unknown with fun crafts and games. Attend 3 programs and finish the 3rd stage of the Reading Club and you'll be invited for my end of summer Scare In Lock In on July 28! A whole night of creepy fun at the library!


Come pick up a YA 2012 Summer Programs brochure or check the library website, twitter and here for upcoming programming! If you'd like to texts sent to your phone about programs text @yaprograms to (516) 342-4409.

By
  Summer is fast approaching and if you have a high school reader, you might be looking for new titles to engage them this summer. Librarian, historian, and author Alexandria Brown has allowed us to share their recommended lists to help make that easier! Per their blog*: As a high school librarian, offering reading recommendations for students is one of my favorite parts of my job. These lists are for parents, library workers, and teen readers... I created these lists through an alchemy involving age of the protagonists, themes, genre, tone, complexity, reader skill/comfortability level, events and topics a student will likely encounter in their studies during the school year, and books they are unlikely to read for school. I also tried to pick materials that published in the last few years or will be published by June 2021. Preference to #ownvoices and marginalized authors. Below you'll find links to their lists broken up by grade level. Whether you know an avid reader who always...
