Teen Advisory Board:

Teen Advisory Board (or TAB) is a great way for teens to get involved in their community, make their voices heard, and earn service hours! Think of it like a “student council” for the local library. We plan events (like the ones on this page!), curate a monthly book display, collaborate on outreach/marketing/social media initiatives, and more! TAB looks awesome on a resume & each meeting counts for 2 volunteer hours. If you’d like to join/more information, check out this form: Teen Advisory Board (TAB) Application (26-27). Contact Taylor at tdavis@rclstn.org with any questions.
