Ten Tips for Teen Summer Reading: #6

A Friendly Wager

So you know how mayors of cities competing in big sporting events always wager something on the outcome of the game? Why not do that with another library?

Find a colleague in Queens (or anywhere, for that matter) and bet their teens what your teens will do this summer. You could wager on

• number of teens signed up
• number of books read/logged
• number of books reviewed

Have the two groups of teens figure out the wagers--make them fun and appropriate to your library. In the spirit of competition, both libraries will win!
