Library programs and services for "new adults." Alex Cranshaw, Morgan Brett, Andrew Mihopulos The New Adult Committee (NAC) is a special interest committee under the Reference & Adult Services Division of Suffolk County Library Association. New Adults are library patrons in their 20’s + 30’s who have aged out of Teen Services, are in college and grad school, in trade school, new to the work force, business owners, unemployed, starting families, immigrants, BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, or have special needs.
