Courtyard Book Chats for 2009

Summertime book talks return to downtown for a fourth year, in the form of our Courtyard Book Chats...in the Garden!

Every Tuesday, starting June 2nd, in June, July and August, a Lincoln City Libraries staff member (or special guest) will present a themed booktalk over the lunch hour -- 12:15 to 12:45 -- in the beautiful Lincoln Foundation Garden -- 1415 "N" St. (across "N" St. from Bennett Martin Public Library).

If you're interested in hearing about recent bestsellers and/or other quirky titles you might have missed, we encourage you to bring along your lunch and join us for any of these quick, thematic book talks. Specific themes are still being finalized, but you can find the schedule on BookGuide's Book Groups page. You can also watch out for book lists and podcasts of many of these book presentations to be made available via the libraries' Booktalk Booklists and Podcasts pages as well.

Note: In case of rain or other inclement weather, Courtyard Book Chats will be held in the covered seating area of Bennett Martin Public Library's open central courtyard garden.
