First Tuesdays partners with CAYAS to present Teen Booktalks and Readers’ Advisory. Panelists are teen librarians from various libraries: Jessica Lucas (Seattle Public Library), Jackie Parker (Sno-Isle Libraries) and Bonnie Svitavsky (Puyallup Public Library). Discover new teen titles and how to help teens find more books to read when there are no more Twilight books to read.

First Tuesday, designed as a continuing-education opportunity for staff of libraries in Washington State, offers free web presentations from 9:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., on the first Tuesday of each month. These presentations let attendees share their skills and successes and learn about new topics. The special-subject presentations, lasting about 30 minutes, are recorded so that others may listen at their own convenience.
