Teen Advisory Board Inspects H.Y.P.E.

The Detroit Public Library H.Y.P.E. Teen Center (helping young people excel) will open May 12-17, 2008. The members of the Teen Advisory Board got a chance to test drive the center after the May meeting.

Miss O showed the room and explained the equipment and services. Teens only! Access to the room will be by special Teen library card.





Steve started up the computers, games, and video.





The Advisory Board members tested everything.

















The Teen Advisory Board meets the first Thursday of each month at 4:00 in the Explorers’ Room. New members are always welcome.
