North Dakota Reads
|
|
Since the program's inception in March 2006, more than 2,000 people have taken part in 90 North Dakota Reads programs in 24 communities. Presently, North Dakota Reads allows reading groups to select three books from one of five distinct themes and meet at regular intervals to discuss them. The NDHC lends the books and makes the link between the reading group and a scholar who provides an introduction to the book and author and helps facilitate the discussion sessions.
