Resources for Reading Across RI 2016

By Donna DiMichele | March 4, 2016

Reading Across Rhode Island 2016

You undoubtedly know that the Reading Across Rhode Island (RARI) 2016 book is The Wright Brothers by David McCullough. You are thinking about incorporating the book into your reading group schedules and perhaps you have considered some programming but really aren’t sure where to go with it. The RI Center for the Book has assembled a complete package of resources and programming that you can use to get your library’s program off the ground!

Resource Guide and Speakers

An extensive resource guide  was created by the RARI Committee and speaker Steve Lubar’s slides from the Kick-Off event are available online.

You can engage a speaker for your Wright Brothers program through the RI Council for the Humanities’ EnRICHment programs. Speakers include military and commercial pilots! Living Literature has a new Wright Brothers program too.

 

Events and Programs

A schedule of events is planned around The Wright Brothers and its themes, including a museum trip and An Afternoon with David McCullough on May 21st.

Promotional materials

Publicity materials including book marks and posters (contact Kate Lentz at Center for the Book) and videos featuring author David McCullough.

The Office of Library and Information Services is a proud sponsor of Reading Across Rhode Island.
