Para adolescentes

La biblioteca es un lugar para que seas tú mismo.

Puedes venir a compartir con tus amigos o a disfrutar de un poco de tiempo para ti. Ven y cuéntanos cómo te va o haznos una pregunta.

Únete a un club de lectura. Haz una actividad. Sé creativo.

Usa el computador. Obtén ayuda con una investigación. Aprende más sobre la educación técnica, las universidades y todo lo necesario para que puedas cumplir con tus aspiraciones.

Y, por supuesto, ¡no olvides tomar prestado un libro!

Caroline

Sucursal: Biblioteca Southwest Regional

Correo electrónico: cbpeterson@dconc.gov

Caroline ha sido parte de la Biblioteca del Condado de Durham desde 2014. No es nativa de Durham y se ha mudado bastante. A Caroline le encanta ayudar a los adolescentes, especialmente cuando estos necesitan encontrar un nuevo libro para leer o ayuda con sus tareas. Como la mayoría de bibliotecarios a Caroline le encanta leer, especialmente novelas gráficas, libros de romance y de temática LGBTQ. Cuando no está trabajando, le gusta cultivar su jardín, hornear (y comer) galletas y pasar tanto tiempo al aire libre como sea posible.
