Teen Book Club

Hi Everyone!

I've been getting lots of questions recently about starting up a Sharonville Teen Book Club at the library and I wanted to get your input!  There's a survey for interested patrons to fill out here at the library, but I wanted to post it here as well:

1.  Are you at least 12 years old?
2.  How many books have you read for fun since school started?
3.  What kind of book club would you like to join?  Check all that apply.
  • Read a book, then watch the movie
  • Read a book about a social problem, then do a service project to fix it
  • Everybody reads the same book, then talks about it together
  • Everybody reads whatever they like, then tells each other what they read
  • Read one kind of book (mystery, dystopian, etc.)
  • My idea of a great book club is...
4.  How often should the book club meet?
5.  What day and time is best for you to come to the book club?
6.  What days and times can you not come to the book club?

So answer the questions in the comment section below and let me know what kind of book club you'd like to be a part of!  And don't forget to check back often for updates on the club.

Teen Movie Night @ the Sharonville Library

Hi Everyone!

I just wanted to touch base with everyone about Teen Movie Night at the Sharonville Branch Library.  As you've probably noticed, we've made a few changes (and we're hoping those changes will make the event easier to attend).

The first major change is the night.  Teen Movie Night will now be on the third Wednesday of the month at 6:00pm.  I know that's a little early, but I wanted to make it early enough so that if we ever want to show an epic movie, we'll have plenty of time to do so.  Hopefully this change to Wednesday, from Friday, will offer you a good excuse to get out and take a nice break in the middle of the week.

The second thing we've decided to change was the selection system.  We've eliminated the whole voting process and are hoping that you'll have some suggestions for movies you'd like to see.  Leave a comment below if you have any suggestions!

The first Teen Movie Night of this year will be next week... Wednesday, January 16th @ 6:00pm!  Hope to see you there!
