It’s no secret that teens need life skills to survive in the real world. Libraries are already celebrated as learning institutions – we offer books and resources to expand the fountain of knowledge, but what about soft skills? We’re here to tell you that libraries can help with that too! By starting a Life Hacks workshop series for teens at your library, you will be preparing teens for success in the real world.
