Jenny Napier introduced Luke Ellington, Teen Services Manager and supervisor of the NCRL book library. Luke gave a great picture of what NCRL does. There are 30 libraries in the 5 counties, which covers the largest geographical area in the state. They also send bookmobiles to many public schools in rural areas not served by the libraries. They provide books, audio books, movies, e-books, and many other resources.Some of the programs offered include the summer reading program, juvenile detention center reading and creative writing program, and a job fair for teens coming this spring. The summer reading program kids logged aver 73,300 hours of reading last summer. They have many activities and events such as a green screen work, photo editing, Rosetta Stone, games, STEM skills, robotics, and more. You can visit the NCRL in person to check out books, or online to have books mailed to you. You can also check out e-books. Got your library card?
