The Paris Wife by Paula McLain!

The programs will be announced on February 1st, and the brochures and books will be available in libraries then as well.  Please follow us on Facebook or Twitter for updates!

A Big Thank You to The Big Read Participants!

The Big Read 2011 featured Dave Eggers’ Zeitoun. Ten local libraries hosted Zeitoun-related programming that highlighted New Orleans culture, food, and music, disaster preparedness, and political injustice around the world. Thank you for participating in these programs and discussing Zeitoun with us!

We’d also like to thank Anderson’s Bookshop, Barbara’s Bookstore, Frugal Muse, and the Tivoli Theatre for helping The Big Read remain a successful annual event.  We appreciate your continued support of our libraries!

Watch for information later in the fall about The Big Read 2012.

Please visit your library to pick up a resource guide for The Big Read, or download the PDF here.  Also, check out the calendar for a complete look at all the events occurring at the participating libraries.

But most importantly, grab your copy of Zeitoun and enjoy reading!

The planning is in progress for another exciting Big Read!  Please keep checking back for a new look and more information!
