Teen Zone
The Teen Zone houses our YA Fiction collection and is a popular place for local teens to hang out or study. Teens ages 12-18 may hang out in the room or use the exclusive teen computer whenever the library is open; however, everyone is welcome to come in and browse the collection in the room and on the shelf just outside.
Our Teen Zone was established in the summer of 2019 with input from local teens and funds provided by the Town of Marshfield and LSTA Grant money.
