COMMUNITY BOOK TALK AT BIRCH GROVE

Date:   1:00PM on  Saturday, August 21, 2021
Location:  Birch Grove Park Bandstand

Thanks to a grant from the American Library Association’s Libraries Transforming Communities: Focus on Small and Rural Libraries initiative, the Otto Bruyns Public Library will be hosting a community book talk on August 21. This community conversation is open to all residents and will be held in Birch Grove Park at the bandstand. The book, "Palaces for the People" by Eric Klineberg, is available at the Northfield Public Library to check out. This book and its subject matter will be used as a conversation starter for Northfield residents to discuss how municipal spaces like the public library, bike path, ball fields and Birch Grove Park can best serve to strengthen our community. Klinenberg takes us around the globe to show how social infrastructure is helping solve some of our most pressing challenges: isolation, education, political polarization, and more.
