Audiences throughout the Twin Cities area will enjoy meeting their favorite local and national authors.

Measurable Outcome(s)

During the first quarter of 2012, Club Book returned after a nearly six-month hiatus. In addition to planning and launching the return of the series to much media and community attention, the season kicked off with two well-attended events in suburban library communities with two highly-acclaimed national authors, Deborah Harkness and Stewart O'Nan.
