So I’ll confess: as a newbie library employee, I forgot Teen Tech Week was coming up. So I frantically scrambled to throw together a display, and I think the results aren’t half bad.

I tried to pick both fiction and nonfiction titles that featured technology. I’m also doing a “Technology Survey” as part of my passive programming/data mining initiative (more on that another time).

The tweens and teens can take the survey online or in person and, at the end of the week, I’ll draw a name and the winner will receive a flash drive and a set of earbuds.

It might not sound terrifically exciting, but the kids seem really into it. I already several survey submissions and the display just went up! Here’s hoping we get even more.
