Programs for Teens
Book Bucks:
This is Swissvale Library's 9-month program to encourage reading among independent readers of all ages. You enter the program on the day you pick up the form, and may continue reading until May 19, 2017. All the books you read will earn you points, which will be given to you in the form of currency - "Book Bucks" - on Sunday, May 21st. On that day we will hold our annual Book Bucks Auction, when you will be able to use your points to bid on all manner of items and certificates. You are encouraged to read books which you have not yet read. Earn as many points as you can, and good luck!
Wizard Card Game Tournament:
Tournaments are held in the spring and fall, with prizes for everyone every week, and grand prizes for the winners in each age group. This event is for ages 10 to adult. We play the game on Saturday nights at 7. We are looking for new faces! Come in and give it a try.
Book Lunch:
The Book Lunch is held once a semester. In exchange for listening to our children's librarian recommend interesting books, we provide you with a free lunch. The next Book Lunch will be in the spring.
