All Iowa Reads Author Presentation

Join us for a viewing party of an hour-long webinar with the All Iowa Reads author, Allen Esken! He will discuss his book, The Quiet Librarian, the writing process, and answer questions from the audience. The book will also be discussed at Book Chat at 12:00 p.m. on June 16 and at Books on Tap at Lake Time Brewery at 6:00 p.m. on June 10. Established in 2003, the purpose of All Iowa Reads is to foster a sense of unity through reading. Iowans are encouraged to come together in their communities to read and talk about a single book title in the same calendar year. All Iowa Reads consists of three programs, each with one title chosen per year: adults, teens ages 13-18, and kids ages 8-12. The program is administered by the State Library of Iowa.
