Community Read enters Week 4 with momentum

The Library brings community together through discussions, events and programs. A community that reads together, is a community that grows together.

As we head into week 3 of Community Read, we’re happily overwhelmed by the number of people reading, sharing and discussing the books and we hope even more people will join in. This year, the Charlotte-Mecklenburg community has come out in full force for Community Read.  If you’re just getting into Community Read 2019, There are still plenty of great programs and events lined up both through the Library and our community partners.
