Addie, a sophomore in High School, discusses how a new Library would be more welcoming to Barrington teenagers. She suggests that it could have a “Teen Corner” with comic books and movies aimed at teen audiences. Having a dedicated space for teens would provide an area for teens to socialize in-person, and would help them feel like there’s “a space for me”. She also suggests that the new library could have more activities for teens to do together, bi-weekly or monthly.
More than a building, more than books—where community comes together
