Marine Community Library recently received a fabulous donation of hundreds of books that were submissions for the National Book Award in the Fiction category. Diane Wilson, author of The Sand Keeper, and speaker at our author talks in 2021, was a judge this past year and donated the books to us. Exciting new titles are joining our shelves.
However, there are more gifted books than we have room for in the Library! We will have books available at several fall events. Please enjoy browsing and take a new book home with you!
We’ll have books to give away at the Marine Documentary Nights on November 5th and December 3rd, as well as at the Craig Blacklock Author Talk on Tuesday, November 17th.
