Teen Advisory Board
The
Teen Advisory Board of the Calcasieu Parish Public Library is a wonderful
group of young adults from grades 6-12 who meet monthly.
This board is an invaluable resource for the library staff. We
appreciate the suggestions of programming ideas that appeal to this age
group,
recommendations of print and non-print materials of interest to young
adults in our community, and input regarding ways to entice the reluctant
reader to visit the library.
