This month's theme is books that are LGBTQ+ centered. Pick any book you want that fits the theme and come discuss it with friends! Each month, we will discuss books in a different genre and everyone will talk about the book they chose to read. Spoilers may occur, so please be advised.
All the Library Can Be
The library is essential to a thriving community, ensuring equitable access to information, education, and technology for all. We raise funds to support Lexington Public Library programs, services, and special projects that go beyond what public dollars alone can support.
If you love recommending books, this is for you! Kids who sign up to be a Kid Librarian get to create a display of their favorite reads—applications will be available at the event. We’ll also hear book talks from former Kid Librarians and learn how the Lexington Public Library processes its collections from our Collection Manager.
Join us for a book discussion on the Community Reads selection for 2025, Happiness Falls by Angie Kim.
