Each month teens can read and discuss a banned/ challenged book, learn about intellectual freedom, and grab some snacks. Parents/Guardians are always welcome to join any meeting with their teens.
We will discuss teen books that have been banned or challenged historically or currently in the United States. We will talk about the time and circumstances of the ban/challenge, as well as the book as a whole.
Teens can learn about the Library Bill of Rights, censorship, and choosing what books are right for them.

The pleasing design of the Anderson-Foothill Branch has two unique elements as part of its plan. The first is a passive solar energy design that includes earth berming, window placement for solar heating, and zone supplemental heating/cooling. The second element of this 14,900 square foot community library built in 1985, expanded in 1992 and in 2002, is a modular design.
The Anderson-Foothill Branch has a meeting room available for public use with tables, chairs, and a projector screen. The Anderson-Foothill Branch's outdoor amphitheater is a popular location for summer concerts. Free parking is available to the north and south of the building, and free wi-fi access is provided throughout the library.
