The Teen Area -- affectionately called "The Jungle" -- serves Teens in grades 6-12 and houses books (both fiction and non-fiction), audiobooks, graphic novels, and our new monkey mascot, Gir.

 

Book discussion groups and special events are offered throughout the year. TAG (Teen Advisory Group) meets monthly to plan programs and discuss the Teen Area. A bi-monthly newsletter, The Howler, helps keep Teens informed of all programs.
