It s a Whole New Scene

We?ve waited a long time for April 26 to get here. We?ve had meetings about it, created fliers, told all our friends, family members and perfect strangers about it, and I?m sure some of us at the Library have even dreamed about it. At 7 p.m. at the Central Resource Library, two major events will happen: the reception for the release of the fourth volume of elementia will commence, and the new Web site just for teens, www.jocoteenscene.org, will have its official launch.

The new Web site is very interactive. Teens can submit their poetry and book reviews online as well as comment on everyone else?s online postings. They can even choose a ?skin? for the Web site that best represents their mood. The skin themes include a splashy orange theme, a groovy 1960s theme, a sports theme, a gothic theme and a jungle theme (with monkeys!). In addition, all the booklists created by Youth Services staff are in the process of being updated. New booklists will be added to the Web site each week, and yes, teens can post comments on those, too. Finally, an instant message window is available on all of the JoCoTeen Scene pages so that those using the Web site can ask a librarian questions during library hours without leaving their computer.

We re very proud of the new site, so please take a moment to check it out. If you have questions, a feedback form is available at the bottom of the JoCoTeenScene Web site.
