Welcome to The Loft!

Greetings from The Stickney Forest View Public Library Teen Loft. If you haven't visited us before, it's high time you do so! We have our very own second floor balcony space, dedicated to young adults, ages 12-18. We have a comfy spot here with cafe style seating, couches, and bean bag chairs, internet-ready computer workstations, a flat screen TV and PS4, not to mention our awesome collection of fiction, Manga, Graphic Novels, books of CD, Non-Fiction, and Magazines.

We have a TON of programming here at The Loft, including Craftzilla, Office Supply Warfare, and Gaming Throwdown. We also have an Anime & Mange club that meets once a month where we watch Anime and swap Manga. We occasionally have after hours parties where we watch movies and eat pizza. Our SUmmer Reading Program just ended and we had a fabulous Horror Movie Marathon where we raffled off super cool items including a brand-new laptop!

So if you want book recommendations, to learn a new craft, make weapons from office supplies, game with friends, read, study, or just hang out and play games, come visit us!

Yours,

LaRaie (i.e. SFV YA Librarian)
