Unsurprisingly, the number of visitors was closely related to the size of the teen center. The average traffic was higher at libraries with more dedicated teen computers, study rooms, and televisions. A bigger collection did not bring in more teens. In most cases, it seemed the teen center had about as many average customers as it had space to hold them. Whether larger spaces would attract larger crowds at small libraries is unknown.
