food & teens

On the Law & Order shows, they eat a lot. Maybe to portray that they're too busy working to stop and eat, but still, they eat a lot on-screen.

In the teen library world... It was a very quiet night. There were a ton of teens in without any behavior incidents. This made me very happy :o) They're all good kids and I hate nagging them for noise and rough-housing. I don't want to be the cranky old librarian, but it does happen.

One of my goals for next year is to have more passive programs (board games, puzzles, whatever). This serves two purposes: (1) it fosters more independence among the teens and (2) I'm not spending my time preparing for programs that have poor turnout. I've also been booktalking A TON on the spot. I need to read more :o)
