Serving teens in MHLS libraries

If you are lucky enough to have older teens in your group, here are some ideas for honoring them from ya-yaac listserv:We honor the outgoing members with a cake, card signed by all the TAB members and a graduation-dressed teddy bear holding a gift certificate for Barnes & Noble, presented at the last meeting of the school year.  So far we’ve only had one per year, so it hasn’t strained the budget. We also asked them to suggest a book to add to our YA collection that had meaning for them - one was a biography of her favorite poet - and we put a book plate with their name in it with the years of service as a TAB member.
