Book Club Resources

  • Long Island Reads began in 2002 and is an Island-wide reading initiative intended to bring together readers from across Nassau and Suffolk Counties to discuss a book and participate in library-sponsored activities and events associated with it.  The committee endeavors to choose a title that has a direct Long Island connection and lends itself to related programming.
