National Library Week is right around the corner, and this year's celebration is going to be BIG!!! To kick things off, Read on the Green [ROTG] will happen on Saturday, 4/10, from 12 noon to 5 pm. There will be reading circles, poetry, guest authors, word games, and more. Also, as part of ROTG, we will be hosting the first Human Library in the USVI!
The theme for National Library Week 2010 is "Communities Thrive @ Your Library", and the Human Library is designed to highlight the diversity that exists within our community. For more information on the event, see the Human Library section of our website.
Additionally at ROTG, there will be an activity for the Big Read initiative: discussion of the book A Lesson Before Dying.

Teen Tech Week 2010
Mark your calendars--Teen Tech Week 2010 is March 7-13!
Teen Tech Week is a national initiative aimed at teens, librarians, educators, parents, and other concerned adults meant to encourage teens to take advantage of libraries' non-print resources. The 2010 theme — Learn Create Share @ your library — fosters teen creativity and positions the library as a physical and virtual place for safe exploration of the many types of technology available at libraries, including DVDs, music, gaming, video production, online homework help, social networking, tech workshops, audiobooks and more.
