Now that the school year is in full swing, it's nice to have a place where you can work on homework, chill with your friends, or take time to relax in peace and quiet. We are working to make the Little Falls branch of Montgomery County Public Libraries that place for you!
Our refreshed branch has a new teen section featuring an orange glassboard to unleash your creativity, comfortable seating for hanging out or working, and new shelving to ensure the maximum amount of in-demand books, graphic novels, audiobooks, and more. Be sure to thank Darth Vader for watching over the area the next time you are in.
Meet our teen librarian, Tara!
She is constantly working to come up with new ideas to help make Little Falls a great place for teens. You can stop in and see what Tara is recommending. If you check one out, be sure to let her know what you thought. She'll be more than happy to discuss it with you and recommend more books you'll love. In October, Tara will be recommending the absolute spoopiest books, so be sure to keep your eyes peeled for those.
If you are feeling a little bored after school, be sure to stop by the desk to try out one of our teen activity boxes. We currently have a Teen Puzzle Box, a Teen Beading Box, and a Teen Coloring Box available. All we need is a school ID or your library card, and you can get lost in a craft or activity. If you have ideas for other fun options we could provide, be sure to let us know!
As if the activity boxes aren't enough, Little Falls is also providing regular game nights every month. Be sure to check out our schedule of events on our website for details on the the next one, so you can stop on in to our meeting room and play all the hottest board games like Exploding Kittens, Settlers of Catan, Fluxx, and more.
We also have an outstanding slate of teen programs at Little Falls. Hopefully you were able to make it out to help celebrate the grand opening of our teen section with our prize wheel, by making hats for Darth Vader, and making custom buttons. More recently, we celebrated back-to-school Harry Potter style by making potions, wands, and other fun stuff. Be sure to make it out to our Spoopy Halloween Party for Teens on Tuesday, October 31 from 4-5:30 pm.
Keep an eye on our calendar of events for more outstanding events, and don't hesitate to ask our team about what's on the horizon for teens at Little Falls. And while you are on our site, be sure to checkout the MCPL Teensite for inspiration on what to read next, all the news on MCPL teen events, and other awesome content.
