Get Connected with Teen Central



Click here to hear the first episode of Get Connected with Teen Central!

This podcast was created by the teens who attended the "Press Play - Get Connected" workshop on March 10, 2009, along with Tonya Oswalt of Bossier Parish Libraries' YA Services, and Jaketha Farmer, the library's IT Specialist.

We hope to make this a quarterly podcast with the help of our Teen Advisory Board and other local teenagers.


Please comment and let us know what you thought of the podcast!

Art and Poetry Display



Do you draw, paint, or create digital art?

Do you write poetry?

Would you like to see your work displayed at the library so that other area teens can see it?


The Bossier Central Library is interested in providing a space for teens to display their artwork and poetry. If you are interested in having some of your work displayed at the library, please pick up a submission from from the Young Adult area of the library and return it and your original work to the front desk or reference desk.

All submissions must be original in content and not the work of someone else. A copy of your original work will be made for display and your original will be returned to you if you supply a contact number on your submission form.

We look forward to seeing your creativity!

Magnetic Poetry - Be Creative!

You might have noticed that one of the bulletin boards in the teen area has magnetic poetry on it now. Please feel free to spend some time back there using your imagination!

Here are some of the things that have been seen on the board recently:

"Poetry could say fear answers love."
"First find escape, then wander."
"Take & discover poetry
write
dream
desire
inspire
do"
