Find the Library @your Place
Find the Library @your Place
Teen Read Week (TRW) is an adolescent reading initiative of the Young Adult Library Services Association (YALSA), a division of the American Library Association (ALA) which is being adopted by school libraries worldwide. It began in 1998 and is celebrated annually to encourage teens to spend time reading for pleasure. Amidst all the chaos that is happening right now during this pandemic, it is critical to remind our students of the importance of reading as the key to lifelong learning.

Find Your Place @the Library
Find Your Place @the Library
The theme for Teen Read Week 2020, “Find Your Place @your Library, Find the Library @your Place,” was adopted from the National Library Week of American Library Association. When most people think of “library,” they think of books. And while that is certainly true, libraries are more than just books but places of information. Even though most libraries are closed because of the global pandemic, libraries still provide virtual spaces and offer online services and digital content. In addition to connecting information, libraries connect people. They are safe havens for students, promoting literacy and serving as community hubs. The theme was chosen to reflect how libraries go beyond the four walls of the school, and show how each one of us can still find our own place in the library.
