On February 14, 2009 Oregon will celebrate its sesquicentennial; that's right, Oregon is turning 150 years young in 2009. Of all the birthday celebrations going on in 2009, TBABS is most excited about a statewide event called Oregon Reads! During the period of January to April 2009, all Oregonians are encouraged to read one of three books: Stubborn Twig by Lauren Kessler, Bat 6 by Virginia Euwer Wolff, or Apples to Oregon by Deborah Hopkinson.


To make sure that Talking Book patrons have an opportunity to enjoy these three Oregon inspired titles, TBABS has made sure to have all three books available in one of our many formats. Check out our OREGON READS page for more information on how to be a part of the party!
