Helps develop spaces in which teen programming and library services support positive teen mental health.

As the scope of librarianship rapidly changes, librarians are called to consider the multifaceted needs of their communities. Lambert and Velásquez draw on their library and social work experience to provide librarians with real-world, sustainable tools to help them foster positive teen mental health within the library.

Beginning with an examination of library service to teenagers, the authors next offer a guide to supporting positive environments, actions, and services. They conclude with a section on cultivating relationships with both teenagers and community partners.

Benefitting any library staff member working with teens, including administrators, this timely book helps public librarians navigate a landscape of privacy and confidentiality concerns to support their day-to-work. School librarians will benefit from strategies and tactics for fostering positive environments and relationships with high-school aged teens.
