Thank you for joining us again on our book group and Reader’s advisory podcast! Ariel and I have had such a good time talking about books with you this season.

We have been exploring all new ideas for books and book suggestions, so you can expand your reading horizons, and share more information with your library community. We looked at prompts from the 2023 PopSugar reading challenge this season. 

And now we are wrapping up the season! We’ve really enjoyed reading books with you, and having book group fun!  If you have missed any RWL, our archives are on the website. You can go back to cmle.org any time and listen to any of our podcast episodes. The book group is always here for you!

This week is pretty frustrating to discuss. We are librarians, and CMLE helps to support over three hundred different kinds of libraries across Central MN. We support the freedom to read, and the freedom to choose the books you want to read. If you have kids, you can encourage them to read the books you like and think are good. But it does not give anyone the right to tell other people they cannot read and enjoy a book. It’s so wrong to keep books away from people, just because of the irrational fears or prejudices of a few individuals.
