Everybody Reads Selections

The Everybody Reads project, coordinated by Multnomah County Library and made possible by the Library Foundation, was launched in 2003. Designed to bring neighbors, friends and colleagues together in a community-wide discussion of one great book, Everybody Reads combines book discussions with dozens of related events, including performances, literary programs, community forums and film screenings.
