Find your community online.
The Library’s Teen Discord server (PCLTeens Discord) is an online space for teens — guided by your experiences and input! Connect with library staff for resources and suggestions, cheer your peers, and find your community with channels for books, homework support, trivia, events, hobbies, pets, and more!
Discord makes connecting to resources and community easy and fun – even outside the library!
What is Discord?
Discord is a social media and messaging app used to connect and hang out with other users on an online server. This allows users to plan activities or events, share information, and respond and react to content shared by other users in the server community. Discord is available to use in-browser, or as an app.
How Discord Works in 148,000 Milliseconds or Less
Library staff use Discord to share information about library events and volunteer opportunities in the community, answer questions, connect with teen councils, and even host virtual Discord Voice Channel/Video events to enjoy from home. PCLTeens is an online hub to offer easier access to library resources!

Conditions of Use:
Use of PCLTeens is limited to teens ages 13-19 to ensure a teen-only space. Library Rules of Conduct apply to the server, and we use community agreements to ensure a respectful place for all users. Users who do not comply may be temporarily removed from the server or permanently banned. Read Discord’s terms of use.
All Library policies and guidelines apply to this online space.
Applications are reviewed by Teen Services library staff before server access is granted. Teen services staff act as moderators during library hours, but teens can reach out to staff moderators with questions or concerns by sending a direct message.
