#LitLibLoot is a no cost book subscription program for teens. When you sign up you will receive 2-3 YA books picked specifically for you. While any library items included in the subscription must be returned, all the special mystery loot is yours to keep!
Sign-ups are open for Winter/Spring 2025. THIS IS THE FINAL WEEK TO REGISTER FOR A FEBRUARY SUBSCRIPTION. The sign-up survey will remain open on a rolling basis to receive your subscription(s) between February and May! You can sign up for one month OR two alternating months (February and April OR March and May) at a time per sign-up cycle. Fill out the form and choose what works best for you.
We will check in with you at the beginning of the month you choose and remind you that your subscription is on its way. You can then expect to be contacted to pick up your subscription around the middle of the month.
Sign-ups for Fall/Winter will remain open through Saturday, April 26, 2025.

Craftivity for Teens runs on the first Tuesdays of the month at Cesar Chavez Library and on the fourth Wednesdays of the month at John Steinbeck Library from 3:30 PM to 5 PM.
