Welcome!

If you're reading this, you've found the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh - Teens blog! Here we, the Teens staff, will attempt to keep you, the reader, updated as to what's going on in our space, what we're reading, what you're reading, and so forth. Feel free to post comments and tell us what you think!

My name's Karen and I'm one of the Teen library assistants. The other people on our staff you might hear from are Ellen, Joseph, Erin, Reed and Robyn, as well as our interns, Adaena and Licia (who won't be with us much longer...boo hoo). Together, we are the Teens Staff!

Right now it's Tuesday at 3:22pm, and those of you in the know know what that means -- DDR. That's right. We have Dance Dance Revolution set up in the Teen Meeting Room and there are about eight of our regulars in there dancing their hearts out. Starting next week, though, Summer Reading is over and we'll be going back to just having DDR on Friday afternoons at 3pm.

Speaking of Teen Summer Reading: about 200 teens signed up for TSR at CLP - Main, and a whole lot more signed up across the city! If you want a chance to win the grand prize, a trip to Kennywood or Sandcastle for yourself and five of your friends, there's still time! Just go onto our website, www.carnegielibrary.org/teens/tsr and sign up. Then, fill out the survey for your chance to win!

Anyway...that's all the news that's fit to print for now. I'll be back.
