Any medium is accepted – we’ll display it all! Stop in for more details or just bring in your artwork & have the opportunity for your work to be judged by artist Bay Woodyard.

Write a book review about ANY book you read (or any book you HAVE read) and get volunteer credit. We’re also offering (in Picton Branch only) the opportunity to record yourself talking about a book and get volunteer hours!

Halo 3 release day!
Posted by liz on September 25, 2007
As you’ve probably heard… today is Halo 3 release day! Our intrepid IT guy went to EB in Belleville last night to pick up a copy of Halo 3 for our playing enjoyment. So today there have been literally millions* of people in the Teen Room taking turns playing.

Famous blog.
