Our first reading challenge is *just for teens* in honor of TeenTober, a yearly celebration of teen library services.

We also have TeenToberfest this month on Saturday, October 14 at the Judge Marquez Library at 610 N Yarbrough from 11 AM-4 PM.  Our second reading challenge is for Banned Books Week!
