The Library and Minority Male Success Initiative have collaborated to create a literacy conversation space for those who are interested in reading excerpts from captivating, award-winning titles. On Tuesday, April 20, we will read and discuss Invent and Wander: The Collected Writings of Jeff Bezos. This is a safe and respectful space for you to share your ideas, views, and thoughts related to the session's excerpt with peers. We encourage you to read before attending, jot down notes, and think objectively. Check your weekly PCC E-Bulletin for registration details. If you have questions, please feel free to contact Brittany Champion by email: bnchampion711@my.pittcc.edu or phone: (252) 493-7362.
National Library Week is a celebration of libraries and the impact they make on the communities they serve. This year, libraries across the country are celebrating National Library Week beginning Sunday, April 4th. The theme is "Welcome to Your Library".
Librarians have found innovative ways to help library users reach beyond the four walls and explore the library virtually. There are several library types including public, academic, school (K-12), and special. Each library caters to a different community of people, thus encouraging a lifetime of learning, community networking, and personal growth.
We are hosting a series of programs this week as we explore the library virtually. We look forward to having you participate and share your perspectives.
Do you like to talk about books? Are you interested in hearing what others have to say about their favorites? Need some ideas about what to read next? If so, join us for Book Chat where we can talk about books we love and even those we hate!
April is National Poetry Month, and we're ready to celebrate! Join us for an evening of poetry reading. Don't worry about your poetry writing skills. Be creative. Be ready to cheer on your peers. Be ready to have a great time.
If you just want to view the contest, keep an eye out for an email with the PCC E-Bulletin that will include the access link.
