What's the secret to a successful teen department? Teen involvement, of course. But teen participation is often easier wished for than achieved. Making it a reality goes way beyond advisory groups and surveys. It calls for enlisting teens in virtually all aspects of library service.
Diane P. Tuccillo holds an MLS from Rutgers University, has worked with teenagers in libraries for 37 years, and is currently teen service librarian at the Poudre River Public Library District, Fort Collins, CO.
