Program Description:

Lights! Camera! Book trailers! Celebrate Teen Tech Month at the Downtown Library. Use the library's iPads to create, film and edit a book trailer for popular young adult titles. Book trailers are to books as movie trailers are to movies. For a book to be a success, it must have an awesome trailer!
