Read Banned Books! Group--In Person—Begins in July
Each month, co-moderators Keith Hermiz and librarian Michelle Dufort will select a book title using the list of books recently banned from the Nimitz Library at the US Naval Academy—books that challenge, enlighten, and sometimes discomfort. Please join us. Read bravely. Think boldly. Be as fearless in thought as Admiral Nimitz was at sea.
Please register via email to be on the book group mailing list, to borrow books from the reading list, and to receive discussion guides. We will meet on the second Wednesday of each month.
