Join us for the whole year in celebrating the 175th Anniversary of Iowa by discussing books relating to Iowa history. We will be starting off the conversation with each of the four books selected by the State Historical Society of Iowa’s Iowa History Book Club. We will be offering a local perspective on these topics with the help of the staff of the Richardson-Sloane Special Collections Center.

On Wednesday, December 1st at 6:30 pm, we will be discussing “On Behalf of the Family Farm: Iowa Women’s Farm Activism since 1945” by Jenny Barker-Devine.

Books are available through the Rivershare Library Catalog. Registration is not required. This program is meeting virtually using GoToMeeting. Information about how to join is listed below.
