Teen Advisory Board

What is TAB?

The Teen Advisory Board (TAB) is a service opportunity for teens in grades 6–12. TAB members help guide the programs and services the Helen Plum Library offers teens. Additionally, they help with various projects around the Library. Participating in TAB is a great way to give back to the Lombard community!

As a member of TAB, you will:

  • Get together with other teens to talk and discuss issues facing teens today.
  • Help decide what events and services our Library offers to teens.
  • Work on projects such as displays for youth and teens.
  • Earn service hours!
