Let Your Voice Be Heard!

What is TLC?

• The members of the Teen Library Council (TLC) meet once a week to voice their opinions and suggestions for library programs, materials development, and how the library can better serve our young adult patrons.
• Members of TLC also discuss and debate current events. TLC members help create and manage content for The Washingteenian News Website that is being developed to give teens a platform to provide their interpretation of current events and to write about topics that matter to them.
