Description: Hamilton County Library in Syracuse is taking the library to teens, moving beyond physical walls to get them excited about programs, fundraisers, and advocacy. Going to the teens, educating them about the library, and involving them in programs and fundraising, has connected them to their library. They have become some of the best community advocates, telling their parents, grandparents, teachers, and most importantly other students about all the wonderful things the library does. Hear successes and lessons learned for implementation at your library.
