iTAB and Teen Programs

iTAB is the Independence (Public Library) Teen Advisory Board and is open to 6^th-12^th graders.  iTAB is designed to energize teen programming and services as well as allow teens a greater voice at the library. iTAB shows teens they’re important and that they can contribute in a meaningful way. In addition, iTAB helps give library staff the teen perspective. iTAB meets on  a monthly basis throughout the school year. The iTAB Members contribute valuable ideas for teen programming and collection development and have opportunities for volunteering.

No School On Monday?, Head To The IPL!

Local students looking for something to do for this Monday, look no further than the Independence Public Library. October 20th, the IPL will hold Reel Time at 1:30 PM, and LEGOs @ The Library from 3:30 PM to 5:30 PM. If you're a teen hoping to get involved with the library, stick around for the iTAB Meeting at 6:30 PM (Talk to Lulu for more information).
There will be free popcorn at the Reel Time movie, and both Reel Time and LEGOs @ The Library are available for all ages.
And of course, the library always has books, movies, graphic novels, and more to check out and fill the time in between. We even have chess and checkers pieces to checkout for the game board near the teen area. Just ask at the desk.
