School's almost out...




Summer. It's almost here. It's so close you can taste it. All that stands in the way are those last few school projects... and finals. The library can help you breeze through the next month and those last few tests.


Check out our Homework Help page for lots of useful links. We can help you cite papers, find great sources, and more.


Taking the SAT or ACT soon? Try Learning Express Library for practice SAT & ACT tests to help you ace those exams. Use your library card number to log on from home.


Sleeping in, days at the beach-- you're almost there! Good luck, and keep an eye on teens.hcplc.org for lots of fun, free events happening at your library this summer.

Read 'em now: Teens' Top Ten nominations!




Did you know that today is Support Teen Literature Day? Well, it is! Do your part by helping YALSA select books for the Teens' Top Ten List. Click here to see a list of the 25 nominated titles. Read them this summer, and then vote for your favorites during Teen Read Week in October. By the way, I highly recommend the short story collection ZOMBIES VS. UNICORNS. You may be surprised who wins. Just sayin'.
