What is a
TAG?
A TAG is a Teen Advisory Group! Teens in TAG can help library staff create
exciting and interesting programs and activities for teens at the library,
and can promote the library’s services and programs for young adults among
their peers. TAG membership is open to all 7th to 12th graders (public,
private, or home schooled).
ALTAG is
"The Ashtabula Library Teen Advisory Group"

997-9341 ext. 2 (Ashtabula Library), (440) 466-4521 (Geneva Library).
What Do I Have To Do?
Attend meetings and work with other TAG teens to help show what the library
has to offer and that
the library and reading are fun! You will be expected to have positive
ideas, be able to listen and work with others, and be willing to help the
library. The TAG receives assistance from an Advisor on the Library staff
who can keep members aware of available resources and boundaries of the
group.
Why Should I Join TAG?
Being a member of TAG allows you to have some input into library
programming. By helping library staff create and run activities and programs
for young adults, TAG members can learn more about themselves, their
friends, and the library.
