Imagine a library designed by teens: Rather than stern warnings to be quiet, there would be cheers in a Nintendo Wii video game competition. The room would feature a few colorful beanbags and funky chairs, thousands of bestsellers, and no time limit on the computers.
Thanks to new federal funding, that teen dream is coming true in eight communities across the state, including at the Marlborough Public Library and Dover Town Library. Awarded last month, the grants will help those facilities - as well as libraries in Braintree, Everett, Ipswich, North Reading, Palmer, and Williamsburg - create or improve facilities and services for, and designed by, teenagers.
