  • Recommending books, movies, music, manga, and magazines for the library to add to its collection
  • Creating and helping to maintain a cool area for teens in the library
  • Promoting library events and services within the community and in schools
  • Encouraging expression by and for teens via the creation of displays, flyers, and booklists
