Abstract

This article discusses how the Queens, New York library at Far Rockaway created a library for teens after being inundated with after school, as well as drop-out teenagers who sought to utilize their free computers. This library branch could not expand their current library, so they opened a library for teens one block away in December 2007. The teen library features relaxed rules for noise and snacking, computers that offer room for multiple viewers, and programs of interest for teens.
