Santa Clara City Library's Teen Library Leaders (TLL) is an advisory board of local teens in grades 7-12 who meet monthly with the library's Teen Services Librarian to discuss books, movies and music, and to give input on what they want from the library and assist in making it a reality. TLL requires a commitment to attend one meeting per month during the school year, volunteer to set up programs, and participate in reading and library program attendance outside of the meetings.
No registration required.
