Information


	Our next Books to Action Book Club will be focused on elections and voting. We hope that you will join us again. The Book: “Thank you for voting: the maddening, enlightening, inspiring truth about voting in America” by Erin Geiger Smith. Please call 828-250-4700 if you would like help putting a hold on a library copy of this book. We also plan to send some supplemental suggested resources (news articles, podcasts, etc.) to our registrants to help round out the reading. The Action Event & Discussion: Wednesday, April 3rd from 5:30-8pm Our group will come together to discuss the book and these issues at Buncombe County Election Services. We will meet with elections staff and elections officials for a Q&A. We may also get to incorporate some hands on activities, such as a ballot checking exercise and/or a demo of the new touch screen voting machines. Registration is required. This activity and discussion are best suited for teens and adults. Books to Action is a book club coordinated by Buncombe County Public Libraries that explores nonfiction books centered on key issues facing our community. The book discussions take place in conjunction with a community service project, educational field trip, or presentations from local experts.
