Join a Teen Group at the Library - Information and Application

Teensite Advisory Group (TAG)
Group of Montgomery County teens that write reviews of music, books, and websites, produce podcasts and videos, and bring new ideas to library services for teens. Meet TAG and the TAG Librarians.

Bethesda Teen Reads
Are you interested in having an opportunity to read (and review) new teen books before they are in the bookstore or your local library?  Want to meet an author or two, and participate in informal discussions about favorite books for the year? 

Then consider joining this teen group that operates out of the Bethesda Library.  Teens read ARC’s (advance reader copies) of teen books, and complete short review cards.  Teen reviews are sent on to the local Capitol Choices Best Book Committee and the YALSA Best Book Committee for teen input.  Review books do have to be picked up at and returned to the Bethesda Library.  SSL credit can be assigned for participation in this project.  Contact the Bethesda Library for more information. 240-777-0637.

Book Review Crew
The Book Review Crew meets twice per semester and submits reviews of fiction and nonfiction to be featured on the library's Teensite.  It is a fun, impressively well-read offshoot of TAG.

Quince Orchard Teen Advisory Group
Are you are excited about using the library, reading books and graphic novels, playing video games, or volunteering at the library?  Do you have ideas to improve the library for teens?  Consider joining the new Teen Advisory Group at Quince Orchard Library!  If you are between the ages of 13 and 18 and Quince Orchard is your local library, contact the Quince Orchard Teen Advisory Group.  240-777-0208.

Quince Orchard Teen Book Discussion
Quince Orchard Teen Book Discussion meets on the first Tuesday of each month at 7:00 PM.  Teens ages 13 to 18 are invited for a lively discussion of current book selections.  Selections include books from the YA Collection and adult books that are of interest to teens.  Contact Quince Orchard Library for more information and to pick up the latest book selection.

Silver Spring Teen Advisory Board
Do you have suggestions for making the library friendlier and more exciting for teens?  Are you interested in meeting with other teens monthly and enjoying a variety of activities and some light snacks?  If you are between the ages of 11 and 18, and Silver Spring is your local library, contact the Silver Spring Library Teen Advisory Board. 240-773-9420.
