Summer Reading Programs

This year's Summer Reading Program lasts from June 6 until August 17. We've got one for kids and one for adults, and teens may choose. Come to the Library to find out how you can earn prizes (or a chance at prizes!) while having fun reading, doing an activity, or attending a Library event!

AT THE BENICIA PUBLIC LIBRARY, TEENS CAN:

Special events for Teens

Teen zone

The TeenZone is a place just for teens! From ages 13 to 19, you can find great books just right for you! Here is a list of some of the great things the TeenZone has in its collection:

  • Fiction (science fiction, fantasy, horror, dystopian, short stories, historical and more!)
  • Nonfiction (health, cookbooks, religions, true crime, poetry, history and more!)
  • Audiobooks
  • Series Fiction
  • Graphic Novels, Manga and Comics
  • Board games to play in the Teen Zone

Check out the special displays highlighting new books or exceptional books! BTW, the Youth Services Lead gets a lot of ideas of what to buy from the teens themselves! If you have a great idea for something the Teen Zone should own, contact Melena Tanner: mtanner@ci.benicia.ca.us
