Teens' community hub
City Library has an extensive collection of teen titles and a dedicated space for teens to gather and study with friends or game together. Teen programming throughout the school year includes book club meetings, writing contests, creative expression and lots more.
Librarians are also available to help teens find resources for a school project or research question. Email info@nvcl.ca for help getting started.
