The Monrovia Public Library’s Teen Advisory Board (TAB) is a group of teens in 6th – 12th grade committed to helping the library and the community.

Members meet the first available Monday of each month at 5pm in the library's Community Room to help with the planning and implementation of teen programs, signup for volunteer opportunities, recommend materials for the library to purchase, and talk about ways to make the teen library experience better.

To join, complete the TAB application, sign and scan it, then email it to Amanda Carey, Teen Services Librarian, at acarey@monroviaca.gov. Or you can mail your application to: Monrovia Public Library, ATTN: Amanda Carey, 321 S. Myrtle Ave, Monrovia, CA 91016
