Lexington County Library holds a long-standing commitment to serving teens and young adults by offering exceptional collections, programs and services. Our primary goal is to foster a deep appreciation for reading and exploration. Additionally, we recognize the importance of supporting families, caregivers and educators. When you visit any of our 10 branches, you’ll discover dedicated spaces specifically designed for teens to engage in reading and discovery.
Our specially crafted areas cater to literacy and learning, ensuring that our programs deliver enriching experiences that encourage a love for books and community. For teens, we offer a range of:
Discover the titles, authors or genres you're looking for in the format you want (ebooks, audiobooks)
Browse the world's largest digital newsstand for full color, interactive digital magazines (periodicals)
Are you eager to lend a hand? Volunteers are needed to help organize materials and to support large programs and events. You can participate by joining the Friends or completing the volunteer application.
Teens can help at the library by shelving books, preparing crafts for children’s programs and storytimes, assisting with the summer reading program and more. Ask at your local branch for an application and additional details.
