The Teen Advisory Board (T.A.B.) encourages youth (in grades 6-12) to become lifelong library users through the promotion of reading material suggestions, volunteerism, and assisting the library in developing and implementing programs that serve local teens such as themselves. We accept applications for new members between April – July. If you have questions about joining the Teen Advisory Board contact Evelyn Holtzclaw at eholtzclaw@sjpl.lib.mo.us or 816-232-7729 Ext. 420.
