Inspiring Teens
Why bring Teens in libraries? 
• There are approximately 17.5 million young people aged under 25 in 
the UK today. 
• 46% of 16 to 24 year olds don't read for pleasure. ( 
Taking Part 2011/12 Adult and Child Report, Department for Culture 
Media and Sport, 2012) 
• More young people volunteer than any age group; in fact, 40% of all 
young people volunteer. Despite this, only 12% of media stories about 
young people are positive, almost half the articles about young 
people are crime related and only one in ten stories about young 
people actually bothers to quote a young person.
• The UK has the lowest child wellbeing of all UN countries surveyed in 
2011, below Hungary, Poland, the US and virtually every European or 
Western Nation. 
• 15.9% of all 16- to 24-year-olds in England are not in education, 
employment or training. 
• Reading books is the only out-of-school activity for 16-year-olds 
demonstrably linked to securing managerial or professional jobs. 
• 70% of pupils permanently excluded from school have difficulties in 
basic literacy skills.

Bite Night! 
Author Event 
Hillingdon jumped on the 
Paranormal Romance 
bandwagon back in 2010 
and managed to find an 
author ‘Rachel Caine’ who 
was promoting her latest 
series about Teen 
vampires. 
We linked it with the 
Twilight series by hosting a 
quiz, providing various 
book prizes and a talk on 
Gothic fiction.
Over 60 people 
came to an event 
in a small village 
library that 
normally gets a 
footfall of 180 
people a day.
Rachel Caine 
sold over 100 
books that 
evening and 
signed them 
all. We had a 
local 
independent 
bookseller 
from Uxbridge 
there selling 
her books for 
us.
Free pizza and soft 
drinks provided by 
local kebab shop. 
This was in 
exchange for 
English Language & 
TEFL courses for 
the staff there, 
provided free of 
charge through the 
library – this went 
down a treat!
TokyoPop Re-Con at Ruislip Manor 
Library 
Ruislip Manor Library 
hosted a Manga event 
promoting the 
TokyoPop books – 
people could show up 
in fancy dress. It was a 
mini comic con. This 
was very popular with 
young adults – over 80 
attended.
Moving with Technology 
One Library is trying to launch the ‘Next Generation’ 
of reading group and tying this in with watching the 
film version of the book too. FLASH – Film & Literary 
Appreciation Society – Harefield. The premise is that 
you read the book then watch the film and discuss.
Comfortable Environments for Teens & 
Students
Book of the Year Awards 
Secondary Schools 
Every year the Schools 
Library Service works alongside local 
secondary schools to host a ‘Book of 
the Year’ award. 
The ceremony for this culminates in 
all participating local secondary 
schools doing a performance in front 
of the library service, the school and 
the mayor as well as other 
prominent local figures.
After the performance, a 
winner is selected and 
then the winner for the 
Secondary Book of the Year 
is announced. 
This has really encouraged 
good links with local 
schools, and we can get in 
touch with them directly 
to promote events.
Refreshments!

Thanks very much!

Swapshop 2014: Inspiring Teens - Lara Marshall, Hillingdon Libraries

  • 2. Why bring Teens in libraries? • There are approximately 17.5 million young people aged under 25 in the UK today. • 46% of 16 to 24 year olds don't read for pleasure. ( Taking Part 2011/12 Adult and Child Report, Department for Culture Media and Sport, 2012) • More young people volunteer than any age group; in fact, 40% of all young people volunteer. Despite this, only 12% of media stories about young people are positive, almost half the articles about young people are crime related and only one in ten stories about young people actually bothers to quote a young person.
  • 3. • The UK has the lowest child wellbeing of all UN countries surveyed in 2011, below Hungary, Poland, the US and virtually every European or Western Nation. • 15.9% of all 16- to 24-year-olds in England are not in education, employment or training. • Reading books is the only out-of-school activity for 16-year-olds demonstrably linked to securing managerial or professional jobs. • 70% of pupils permanently excluded from school have difficulties in basic literacy skills.
  • 4. Key things that have worked in Hillingdon • Right Stock • Right Events • Right Environment • Links with Secondary Schools • Refreshments!
  • 5. Stock for Teens • More Study Books • More Graphic Novels • Better Teen Fiction Selection – move with trends • Effective Transitioning to Adult Fiction
  • 6. Bite Night! Author Event Hillingdon jumped on the Paranormal Romance bandwagon back in 2010 and managed to find an author ‘Rachel Caine’ who was promoting her latest series about Teen vampires. We linked it with the Twilight series by hosting a quiz, providing various book prizes and a talk on Gothic fiction.
  • 7. Over 60 people came to an event in a small village library that normally gets a footfall of 180 people a day.
  • 8. Rachel Caine sold over 100 books that evening and signed them all. We had a local independent bookseller from Uxbridge there selling her books for us.
  • 9. Free pizza and soft drinks provided by local kebab shop. This was in exchange for English Language & TEFL courses for the staff there, provided free of charge through the library – this went down a treat!
  • 10. TokyoPop Re-Con at Ruislip Manor Library Ruislip Manor Library hosted a Manga event promoting the TokyoPop books – people could show up in fancy dress. It was a mini comic con. This was very popular with young adults – over 80 attended.
  • 11. Moving with Technology One Library is trying to launch the ‘Next Generation’ of reading group and tying this in with watching the film version of the book too. FLASH – Film & Literary Appreciation Society – Harefield. The premise is that you read the book then watch the film and discuss.
  • 12. Comfortable Environments for Teens & Students
  • 13. Book of the Year Awards Secondary Schools Every year the Schools Library Service works alongside local secondary schools to host a ‘Book of the Year’ award. The ceremony for this culminates in all participating local secondary schools doing a performance in front of the library service, the school and the mayor as well as other prominent local figures.
  • 14. After the performance, a winner is selected and then the winner for the Secondary Book of the Year is announced. This has really encouraged good links with local schools, and we can get in touch with them directly to promote events.
  • 17. Thanks very much! Lara Marshall – Hillingdon Libraries
