[kids-lib] What are Oregon libraries doing? Creating a young teen collection!

[Katie Anderson]

Yesterday I visited West Linn Public Library-see it on Facebook<https://www.facebook.com/ORLibSupport>. The dynamic trio of youth services staff, Elaine, Rebecca, and Sarah, were excited to show off all the amazing things they are doing to create customer-centered youth services-go visit if you get a chance. Of particular interest to you might be their new Young Teen collection for youth in 4th-8th grade. They pulled out older titles from the J collection and younger titles from the YA collection to create a whole new Young Teen collection.

It was a lot of work and still a bit of a work in progress as they keep catching books they missed in the initial move, but it's already a hit kids and families!
