Teen Summer Reading Program 2013 is ready!

This year, the Teen Summer Reading Program encourages you to look Beneath the Surface by reading!   Books help dig up hidden truths and mysteries about life so who knows what you will unearth when you read!
This program has been created and paid for by the members
of the Northfield Public Library’s Teen Advisory Board

 
When is the Teen Summer Reading Program? June 4th - July 25th
Who Can Participate? People going into grades 6 to 12
How Does it Work?

Come to the Teen Area of the library and fill out a short registration form. Pick up a Reading Record where you record what you read.  You can read anything: books, magazines, graphic novels, listen to an audio book.

It all counts! 

Books must be 200 pages or more to count!

THE POINTS: 
200–299 pages = 1 Point
300-399 pages = 2 Points

500 pages and up= 4 points

TAB Garage Sale!

Tuesday, May 07, 2013

The Minnesota History Center folks came down to test out a program on the TAB members.

Although we were sworn to secrecy by the US State Department it was a scenario dealing with KGB Agents operating in Brainerd, MN in the mid 1960's.   It involved codes, secret agents, atomic secrets, a morse code signal and a watertower!  Interesting.....




We advised it needed a little more fine tuning and some of the codes were hard.  We liked the scenario- who knew there were KGB agents in Brainerd of all places!  Deciphering the Morse code was difficult but we gave it a good try.  We triangled the signal!
THANKS MHS for giving us the chance to check it out!
