Abstract

Through technology there is potential to make a connection with typically hard-to-reach teens in the library environment.  Using computer classes and tutorials as a service for these patrons we as librarians can offer teens an opportunity to expand their knowledge of computer literacy and skill. In supporting technology and providing resources that may not be available to teens with limited income or resources we are offering teens a chance to succeed academically and potentially secure a stable financial future.
