Teens in grades 6-12 can sign up for a two hour time slot once a week. Volunteering will begin on June 12. Applications will also be available starting June 1st.
Our Library has received a Year 9 Project Next Generation grant! Funding for Project Next Generation is provided by the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services to the Secretary of State/Illinois State Library under the provisions of the Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA).
Children ages 10 and up are invited to explore and play by using VR headsets. Tweens and teens will use Virtual Reality to travel to museums, historical sites, outerspace, underwater, and more! Please email the Youth Services team at png@chicagoridgelibrary.org to sign-up and for more information.
If you would like to be a mentor to our youth, please ask for more information at the Youth Services desk. Our previous grants have earned exemplary status, meaning that our library is serving as a model for other libraries in the state of Illinois.
