I really like the idea of homework help in a public library – if teens have a place where they can meet friends (some who may attend different schools), do homework in a collaborative environment and be themselves (within reason, of course!), it gives them a positive association with libraries which hopefully should follow them through life.  I think this is a better opportunity for public libraries than school libraries – as much as teens should be engaging/learning/developing skills as much as possible in their school library, if this is there only library contact, once they finish school they may not transition to public libraries and they could be lost.
