Tue Jun 20 11:13:11 PDT 2017

Last week I attended the grand opening of The Dalles-Wasco County Library’s teen programming and digital media lab. You can learn more about it by reading OYAN’s blog post<https://oyanpeeps.wordpress.com/2017/06/20/oyan-review-a-room-of-their-own-teens-get-a-new-space-at-the-dalles-wasco-county-library/> about it, check out their facebook<https://www.facebook.com/pg/thedalleswascocountylibrary/posts/?ref=page_internal> page (with a new stop-motion video of the teens in the room!), and see photos from the grand opening on the State Library’s facebook<http://fb.me/orlibsupport> page.

Great work Megan—Congratulations!

This post is an article from the Spring 2017 issue of the OYAN Review<https://oyanpeeps.files.wordpress.com/2017/06/oyan-review-spring-2017.pdf> and has been edited slightly for publication on the blog. It was written by Megan A. Hoak of The Dalles-Wasco County Library.

[floor plan for a teen space in a public library]This summer, The Dalles-Wasco County Library will open a new teen area. This space has been specifically designed for students in 6th-12th grade. The library is utilizing a $40,000 Capacity Grant from Oregon Cultural Trust, in conjunction with matching funds from Google, in order to repurpose a 1,020 square foot section of the library's second floor.

The library applied for the grant in April of 2016 after seeing an 87% increase in attendance at library programs for middle and high school students. This dramatic increase, along with the desire to help improve local high school graduation rates, served as the inspiration for this project.
