Welcome to the 2010 Big Read Boise and Beyond!
Submitted by mary on January 19, 2010 - 2:58pm.
The Big Read is a time to share a favorite or important book, to explore ideas, themes and topics of local interest as a community. We invite our community to read a book together and experience a number of book related events and activities in the Treasure Valley and other Idaho locations.
The Big Read selection for 2010 is To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee.
All LYNX libraries have multiple copies of the book ready to be checked out along with free readers guides and bookmarks. Book discussions are taking place in libraries all over the area beginning with one here at the Victory Branch on Saturday, February 6th at 2:00 PM. We also have a great variety of other events taking place all over Boise (and beyond), including nationally known speakers. Event schedules are available in libraries, the Cabin and the Idaho Statesman lobby. You can also check it out online.
