you asked for it

Every so often I run a suggestion box ... the lazy librarian's teen advisory group. My next bulletin board is going to feature Abraham Lincoln and Charles Darwin (Abe & Chuck), but the following one will be "You Asked For It." I'll list the suggestions and then a response so teens can see they have the power to influence the library. So ... here's what they want:

• Classes, such as how to write a correct essay report (age 12)
• Bleach DVDs**
• Twilight* (age 16)
• The Host**
• Naruto DVDs (age 10)
• Currents in Drama (scripts)
• Watchmen, From Hell, Sin City, V for Vendetta, Tin Tin, Asterix (age 23)
• More A-list and Gossip Girl books (age 14)
• Sports teams (age 12)
• Rebirth manga (age 17)
• Any PSP games. Good ones. Please. (age 12)
• Brave Story
• Hikaru No Go**
• Fullmetal Alchemist volume 16-20. Please. (age 9)
• Shonen Jump issues. New ones! (age 14)
• One Piece volumes 5-14
• Bleach volumes 24 and 25 (age 11)
• One Piece DVDs
• Simpsons books
• Kufu*** DVDs
• Naruto volume 33 (age 11)
• Fruits Basket

I'm thinking of launching a TAG in March. Let them pick stuff to purchase, suggest summer reading programs, etc.

*Apparently 17 copies is not enough.
**Suggested by multiple people.
***Kung Fu?
