About me:

Contra Costa County Library is a one-stop shop for everything that teens need.

For your school life we've got the info. you need to do your work, 26 places for you to do it, and free tutors online to make it easy.

For your real life we've got access to endless hours of free entertainment; free books, movies, music, magazines, and internet access (that you don't have to share with your little sister). We've also got teen spaces for your and your friends to chill in...how many other places actually encourage you to loiter for hours?

Need community service hours? You can get them at the library.

Hungry? Almost every teen library program serves free food (the good stuff too).

Free water, a bathroom, and A/C...everything teens need to survive is available for free at the library.

Who I'd like to meet:

Teen Authors

Teen Bands

If you know of any guys looking for fun, fast-paced, high-action, funny books that are like video games but are easy-to-read (and did I say funny???) then please tell them to try the AL'S WORLD series!

Readers can check out my Website at www.eliseleonard.com, and if any of your patrons want to take pictures reading my AL'S WORLD books and want to email me the pics, I'll put them up on my Website: www.eliseleonard.com on the FRIENDS page! [They'll be famous! I get hits from all around the WORLD!] Just hit the contact page on my Website to send them to me.

Oh, and the second AL'S WORLD book, KILLER LUNCH LADY, was nominated for an ALA Quick Picks for Reluctant Young Adult Readers, so if you guys want to vote... go for it! (I kind of think AL'S WORLD Book 1: MONDAY MORNING BLITZ is more action-packed, funny and fast-paced, but for some reason, book 2 was nominated?!) :-)

Thanks for the add!
