So, it’s been a while since we’ve posted but here’s what’s new and upcoming:
What’s New? Me. My name is Karen and I’m the new Teen Librarian at the Smithtown Main Branch. Feel free to come by and say hello, I look forward to meeting all of you.
Upcoming:
October 12-18 is Teen Read Week. This year’s theme is Books with Bite. The purpose of Teen Read Week is to remind you spend time reading for pleasure: it's free, fun, and can be done anywhere! Books with bite may be about vampires and other monsters, technology (byte), animals, cooking, or edgy books. Come by the library and pick up a bookmark and see how to vote for Teens Top Ten.
On October 30 join your friends and get into the Halloween mood at the Smithtown Main branch. We will be serving pizza and watching the film, Tim Burton’s Corpse Bride. Show starts at 7 pm and will be in the Old Meeting Room, downstairs in the basement.
The Nesconset Branch will hold After School Wii for Teens every Thursday in October from 3:00-4:00 pm. Snacks will be served. Also a Teen Movie Series on Thursdays, from 7:00-9:00 pm October 2, 9, 23 and 30.
On November 3 the Commack branch will have Create a Tee Made by Me program. Bring your own t-shirt and create a wearable piece of art. Design an election themed t-shirt and enter it in our Democracy T-shirt Contest. Fee is $3.00 and due at registration.
Do you need community service hours? Teen Advisory Group participation will fulfill that need. Suggest materials you would like to see in the library, help plan programs, volunteer to work with children and much more. New members are always welcome! Each participant will receive community service hours for participation. Give us a call to let us know that you’re coming. Join us at the Main Branch on Thursday, November 13 for the first meeting.
Coming Soon:
January
