News & Events

Teen 2.0 Web Page launched

The library is a place for teens. Georgina Public Libraries aims to connect with teens, and has launched a new Teen web page "Teen 2.0". Teen 2.0 meets teens where they interact in the virtual world, like Facebook and My Space, as well as celebrates their creativity and accomplishments. A mural painted by Pickering College students is the web page's banner. On September 8th we'll launch askON, a real time reference service that will help with homework and personal research. There is more planned in the coming months, and teen feedback is always welcome. Contact Electronic Services Librarian Mike Russell at mrussell@georgina.ca with comments or suggestions.
