The Central Libraries > Donnell Library Center > Teen Central Teen Central ABOUT THE COLLECTION Wall-to-wall carpeting and wall-to-wall sound are just two of the changes in the transformation of the Nathan Straus Young Adult Center to Teen Central. Along with the largest collection of magazines, hardcover, paperback and recorded books for seventh through twelfth grades there are now circulating collections of popular music CDs and popular films on DVD and VHS. A surround sound stereo system allows playing music from the collection. A quiet study room is available for teens who don't want to work with music in the background. There are two groupings of comfortable lounge chairs--one near the 36-inch TV. Highlights of the collection include circulating books in Chinese and Spanish, a growing collection of graphic novels and manga and popular anime series on DVD. Our Learner's Advisory Collection provides materials on career and educational choices. There is a permanent exhibit of the titles listed in the Library's annually published list Books for the Teen Age. Services include Internet access reserved for teens, exhibit space for student artwork and afterschool programs. Visits by school classes and other groups by appointment are welcome.
