Book the Teen Librarian

Book the Teen Librarian is a one-on-one research service for teens. Contact the Teen Librarian, Julia Butler, at (562) 904-7360 ext 113 to set up an appointment for assistance with research. Appointments usually last an hour, and provide highly specialized, in-depth research guidance away from the Reference Desk.

When the appointment is made, please provide the topic of research so the Teen Librarian can prepare resources for the teen. Appointments are designed to fit the specific needs, objectives, and time frame of your topic. There are no set hours for this service. Availability on days and times is not guaranteed. Appointments are made for days and times both parties are available so please call early to reserve the best time and day for your appointment.
