  • BN visit - 1st dibs
    • place your name in the book you want first
  • Concerns/Comments
    • Are we going to do another theater visit?  A: we can but it has to be specific.  The Movie has to be rated G/PG and has to be based on a book.  Reasons: the rating is the only way to get funding and the based on the book is how this is library appropriate
    • Can we do Hunger Games #2? A: Probably not as the movie likely be rated PG-13
    • Could we do a movie visit with just the Teen Advisory Board?  A: its possible but funding may be difficult and the same requirements would apple.  What if we all just showed up at the theater together and paid our own way?  A: Yes that could be done, but you could do that on own and not through library unless you want it as an official event.
  • Next meeting - November 20th at 5:00 (short meeting).
