The Miami-Dade Public Library System is inviting teens, 12-19, to participate in its annual T-Shirt Design Contest promoting the theme “It Came from the Library!” Entry forms are available through Sept. 8 at all library branches and online at www.mdpls.org
The teen with the winning design will receive a Barnes & Noble Nook Color, an autographed football, and will have his/her design reproduced on T-Shirts to be worn by participants during the official observance of Teen Read Week, Oct. 15-24. Teen Read Week is a literacy initiative of the Young Adult Library Services Association (YALSA), a division of the American Library Association, which encourages teens to read just for the fun of it.
The program is sponsored by the Friends of the Miami-Dade Public Library and the Miami Dolphins Foundation.
