He-Manners The Young Man’s Book of Etiquette Loeb 1970 Actually I do think that etiquette is a lost art and that these books do need some preservation. Your average public library’s youth nonfiction collection is not that place. Yes, good
Everything You Need to Know About Getting Your Period
The Need to Know Library
Rue
1995
These books are so important for adolescent girls! We find them all the time tucked away in the dark corners of the library. Poor things, they’re too embarrassed or shy to actually check them out! That’s all the more reason to make sure that the books we have available are up to date. The cover of this book would surely keep those timid girls from checking it out. Nothing like carrying around a book with a box of Lightdays and a calendar on the cover. That’s not obvious. Teens and pre-teens might be more likely to check out books on this topic if the cover and title were more discreet. Sure, they need to learn that it’s nothing to be embarrassed about, but they also need to learn about discretion and privacy.

The Partridge Family #10 Marked for Terror Crume 1972s It is another Friday and of course I am breaking out yet another 70s classic. Who doesn’t totally dig the Partridge Family? Yes, youngsters, I am showing my age on these

When Teenagers Take Care of Children: The Official Guide for Baby Sitters
Kraft
1965
I would have guessed that this is even older than 1965. The pictures are adorable, but really old fashioned (even for cartoons!). The worst, though, is the section on first aid. Librarians: please give your teen patrons something more up to date and more accurate than this!

Final Exam
Bates
1990
Submitter: We found this book in our collection, looking very worn over its 21 years of use. When I looked at the name on the school of this teen horror book, however, it was just too creepy! Who knew that nine years later, a school with the same name would go through something much, much worse.
Holly: School name zoomed in below. Creeee-pyyyyy!
