Children's library

Teenzone

Teenzone is part of the library which is for people aged 12 to 18. Young people can get a Young Adult (YA) ticket from the age of 12.

We have a brilliant collection of:

  • books selected for teens - look out for the YA sticker for Young Adults
  • books to help you find your career, help with CV writing and job interviews
  • books to help with your studies or relax with a hobby
  • online books, magazines and newspapers - all free with your library card through the BorrowBox, Libby and Press Reader apps
  • online study and reference help
  • online guidance in passing your driving theory test

In the Forum Library Teenzone, we also have:

  • a brilliant collection of manga and graphic novels
  • magazines
  • computers

There are no fines on overdue books with a YA ticket
