Community Reads with ties to the environment, other books, and Geography!

  • 1.  Community Reads with ties to the environment, other books, and Geography!

    Posted 3 days ago

    We love how a local nonprofit environmental organization, The Nanticoke River Watershed Conservancy has ties to literacy with their latest community read- Divining - A Memoir in Trees.  We are on Chapter 15 but continuing to lay ties to librarianship ion so many ways.

    Chapter 15 of our Community Read - In Memoriam.

    "I am still amazing and in wonder of what conversations can occur from trees being the originating impetus for those stories. Chapter 15 of the NRWC community read exemplifies this, from books, to the Middle East, to New York, to trees as memorials. This last topic pulls me back to our ongoing project of trees in memory of those held dear to us – which we are still working on and will continue to complete in the Fall of 2024..."

    and a cool podcast on this community read!
