Scranton Reads at the Library

The library has a display of Vietnam War books and DVDs in honor of this year's Scranton Reads Book, The Things They Carried by Tim O'Brien.

Scranton Reads is a community reading event organized by the City of Scranton and the Albright Memorial Library. Each year during the month of October, citizens of Scranton get together to read a great work of literature. They participate in book discussions and special events related to the chosen work. Scranton Reads has two main goals. The first goal is to encourage reading among people of all ages. The second goal is to bring the community together through sharing a common experience.
