Gilroy Library Teen Advisory Board (TAB) Applications Open

Gilroy Library Teen Advisory Board
Application (2025–2026 Term)

The Teen Advisory Board (TAB) for the Gilroy Library will meet with the Teen Services Librarian every month
to provide ideas and input about library programs and services for teens. TAB members work on special
projects throughout the year with guidance from the Teen Services Librarian. TAB members serve for one
school-year term and may reapply each year.

Time spent in meetings and on projects may be claimed as community service hours for school. Serving on the
TAB is also a great chance to develop project management and leadership skills, and the experience can be
included on a resume or applications for colleges, jobs, and scholarships.
