Reading, Writing, and Growing Together in Southwestern Indiana
One Book One Community: Reading and Growing Together in Southwestern Indiana is a project of the Evansville Vanderburgh Public Library and is overseen by a committee of interested citizens and community leaders. Based on similar programs throughout the country, it originates from a belief in the sense of community built around the shared experience of people reading and talking about the same book. Bringing people together to discuss ideas in books can play an important role in breaking down barriers between people, cultures, and economic and educational backgrounds.
