The Great American Read

Join in a National Celebration of Reading!


Plus! Watch for news on a related Let's Talk About It, Oklahoma reading and discussion program!


This Tuesday Night—May 22 at 7:00 p.m.—your local OETA station will broadcast the first episode of PBSs The Great American Read, an eight-part series that explores and celebrates the power of reading, told through the prism of America’s 100 best-loved novels (as chosen in a national survey).


As part of the project, Americans will vote on their favorites from among the 100 titles, with the best-loved book revealed in the fall.


Visit the website and take a look at the trailer for more information.


And… watch for an announcement in a few days about a related Let’s Talk About It, Oklahoma program developed by Oklahoma Humanities, the Oklahoma Department of Libraries, and other partners. The program will be available to Oklahoma public libraries and other groups eligible to participate in Oklahoma Humanities’ Let’s Talk About It programs.


Stay turned! More will be revealed!
