For more than a decade, librarians and educators nationwide have joined together in October to encourage teens to "Read for the Fun of It" during YALSA's annual Teen Read Week celebration. This year's theme—Books with Beat @ your library—serves as a creative starting point for developing dynamic events in schools, public libraries, and bookstores, that will inspire young adults to discover new genres, check out poetry, listen to audiobooks, and much more. No matter what direction you take the theme, this event is a great way to encourage teens to visit the library and read for sheer enjoyment!
Here is the website http://www.ala.org/ala/mgrps/divs/yalsa/teenreading/trw/trw2010/home.cfm
and I recommend checking out the wiki which is full of ideas for this and previous year's themes - 2008 was Books with bite picking up on the vampire craze...
