Hey guys,

It's been awhile since we wrote anything. SRP went really well, we had a steady group of girls who came to our programs, and more teens than we have had in several years. Just a quick update on what we have going on. This Friday (8/30/2008) we will be at Marquee Cinema for the premiere of Babylon A.D. It seems like a cool movie so if any of you are there come by our table between 12 p.m. and 3 p.m. and get some free candy and buttons and other fun stuff. Other events coming up are Teen Read Week in October and Teen Nights in November and December. Keep checking back for more details about what we will be doing at each of these events. Also, don't forget to take our teen survey so that we can plan activities based on what you are interested in. Hope you all had a great August, and are looking forward to the new school year.

Metamorphosis @ Your Library

Hey Guys!

We're one full week into Summer Reading Program! We've had some great stuff happening here too. The Teen crafts on Tuesdays at 2 pm are great. Last week we decorated bags, made bracelets and magnets, and added floral touches to ink pens. This week we are making more changes! We are going to make book thongs (ya know those REALLY expensive, but totally cool bookmarks they sell at borders) and decorate flip flops. So if you didn't come by last week you should definitely come this week. We hope we see you there!

Prince Caspian and Mock Poker

Hey Guys! We just wanted to let you know that since Guitar Hero was such a huge hit we will be having another teen program this month. On May 29 from 5:30-7:30, we will be having a Poker Night. Since gambling isn't allowed, we will provide you all with candy instead of chips. We will also have a Nacho bar as well as other snack foods. So everyone be sure to come by the library that night. We will also be at Marquee on May 17 to promote Prince Caspian. We will have some great handouts and information about upcoming events that we are sponsoring. We hope to see all of you there.

Guitar Hero

Hey Teens! We just wanted to let you guys know about an awesome program we are doing during National Library Week. We are having a Guitar Hero Tournament on Thursday April 17th at 6 pm. We know that there is stuff going on at the high school that night, but if musicals aren't your thing we would love for you all to come by. There will be food and drinks, as well as one of the most popular video games of our time! So any teens who are interested feel free to come to the Public Library on Thursday, April 17th at 6 pm. This is a good way to earn bragging rights.

New Books

Hey everybody. We just wanted to let you all know that new books are ordered every month. We would love to know what you are interested in, so please feel free to reply or come by the library and let us know what kinds of books you would like. It's your library, and we want to make the things you want available to you. We love to receive any kind of ideas, and we will do our best to implement them. Just let us know.

Spiderwick Chronicles Movie Premier

We just wanted you guys to know that on February 15 and 16, 2008 we will be at Marquee Cinemas. We will be there at 6pm each night to promote the Spiderwick Chronicles Premier. We will have loads of cool stuff to give out as well as information about several upcoming events we have planned. Feel free to stop by and see us.

Changes

Hi, this is Lis and Chelle. We are the Youth Librarians at the Wytheville Library. After going into the attic and seeing the remains of the 1950's, we decided that maybe it was time for an upgrade. The first start is an internet page that is from this decade. We are hoping to get a lot more kids, tweens, and teens into the library. We need you!!! Save us from the boredom!!! Keep checking back to find out all of the new programs and events we have added to make the library a little more wicked sweet.
