Teen Tech Week: March 7-13, 2010

Teen Tech Week is a national initiative of the Young Adult Library Services Association (YALSA). The purpose of the initiative is to ensure that teens are competent and ethical users of technologies, especially those that are offered through libraries.

Even though Teen Tech Week is just one week, you have the entire month of March to complete your Bingo card!
• Everyone who finishes at least one row or column will win a prize.
• The person who fills in the most squares will win the grand prize: a $50 iTunes gift card! (In the event of a tie, a random drawing will be held to determine the winner.)
• Several of these sites will require a free registration. Ask your parents' permission before registering. Printouts are fine as proof if you don't want to register on all sites.
• For anything uploaded to Flickr, please use the tag "Wilmington Memorial Library" so that we can find it!
• Make sure your answer sheets are submitted no later than 9 PM on Wednesday, March 31.
