CELEBRATING DIVERSITY, INCLUSION, AND UNDERSTANDING IN COOS COUNTY VIA LITERATURE!

The Unlimited Book Club is a joint venture of the Coos Bay Public Library and the North Bend Public Library, formed to encourage awareness and foster community discussions on equity, diversity, and inclusion through reading and thoughtful conversation.

We meet every third Thursday of the month. This meeting will be an opportunity for members to meet and discuss our next title, selected by members, Our Nig: or, Sketches from the Life of a Free Black by Harriet E. Wilson. Suggestions for future readings will come from book club members.
