The thought of a teen room reminds me why I avoided public librarianship with every ounce of my being.

Nice signs though!

Heh. Funny thing is, we haven't had a single reportable incident with teens in the zone. There's a librarian there at all times and it's not a large area so they just stick to their social networking websites and reading. The biggest complaint we get about that area is that it's available for adults only part of the day and some adults get really miffed that they have to go upstairs. Why? Because they like being angry, I guess. One lady claimed she can't do stairs and gets motion sickness from elevators. It took every fiber of my being to not say Really? Even one story? C'mon, give me a f'n break, lady.

The main purpose of the teen zone is to keep teens away from everyone else. We still get complaints from parents who say teens are using computers in the children's area to look at their MySpace pages including suggestive photos. Keeping all three groups separate is in our best interest. Even so, we don't seriously police who's on which computer unless we get a complaint about specific people. We don't max out on our computer use very often.

It's not the birds you need to worry about.
It's the gibbons in the library that you should be wary of.
