Win Earbuds by Searching the Internet



The Fletcher Free Library and ALA's Teen Tech Week are sponsoring a "Dig Beyond Google" Internet Searching Contest.

Get the most answers right out of the 20 questions and win the Skullcandy earbuds. (8 answers is the most I've heard so far...) Beware the accuracy of your sources! Questions are designed to be found on the internet, but also to be a bit tricky...

You can download entry forms for grades 7-12 here:


Turn them in at the library youth desk or at the Teen Tech Week Game Tournament March 7. Good luck!!
