A Space Just for Teens
You will find a space just for teens at our Capilano, Lynn Valley and Parkgate locations – all branches have tables for studying, along with teen books, graphic novels, manga, video games and more. At Parkgate, there is even a study room dedicated for teens. At Lions Gate, we have a small selection of teen books but staff are happy to bring over books from our other branches!
