Special Features
The Rockport Branch will be the site of the new Best Buy Teen Tech Center, an interactive, state-of-the-art learning center for teenagers. Cleveland Public Library was awarded a grant for this special project in 2017, and the Teen Tech Center is tentatively scheduled to open later in 2018. This new center will complement the Library’s ongoing work with digital literacy, hands-on learning, STEM education, and civic engagement.
