The After Hours Readers group meets six times a year on campus. With no designated leader, the meetings are casual and informal. Contemporary fiction is the focus, but classics, banned books, and an occasional non-fiction are chosen also. Readers actively select the books to read; the only requirement is that the book is available in the library system or in paperback. 

Upcoming reads are “The Bluest Eye” by Toni Morrison for September, “West with Giraffes” by Lynda Rutledge for November, and “The Secret Lives of Church Ladies” by Deesha Philyaw for January 2024.
