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.

Zaki Con 2019: Cosplay Contest!

By
The final event  of Zaki Con is our cosplay contest. I assume you're familiar with cosplay if you're reading, but just in case you aren't: cosplay is " the practice of dressing up as a character from a movie, book, or video game, especially one from the Japanese genres of manga and anime." And anyone can do it! Young and old alike are adorable when dressing as their favorite characters from books, movies, and anime! At Zaki Con, we want to see your interpretation of cosplay! You can enter as one person or as a group (though groups will have to share prizes if they win). All you have to do is come dressed as your favorite character. Since Zaki Con is a family event and it is held in the public library, all costumes must be appropriate for our setting and audience! Entries will be judged by a panel of judges from the library and the community. We look forward to seeing your cosplays during the Con and at the contest which will be held at 5:00pm on Saturda

Duct Tape Pencil Bag

By
 1. Gather supplies.  2. Unwrap one length of duct tape and carefully set plastic bag on top. Go slowly so there are no air bubbles in the duct tape! 3. Unwrap other color of duct tape and tape the opposite side of the bag. 4. Trim extra duct tape off. 5. Continue adding duct tape (You can do all one color on each side or alternate like I did. Trim sides so everything is even.  6. Optional, if you want to store your pencil bag in your binder, mark where the rings are located. 6. Use a hole punch to make holes. 7. Decorate with stickers or permanent markers!
