Why are the books in the Teen Space called YA in the catalog?
In the library world, the terms “Young Adult” and “Teen” are used pretty
interchangeably. The books have always been part of Young Adult or YA at West Allis. When it came time to name the new space for those books, plus all the seating, we thought Teen Space was a good name. It’s just a matter of the library using two different names that mean the same thing.
