Biographical / Historical
The "One Book, One Community" program began in 2006 and is still an annual program as of this date. Its goal is to have Marquette County residents and Northern Michigan University students, faculty, and staff all read the same book and come together through discussions and events that focus on the book and its topics and themes. This scrapbook documents the first "One Book, One Community" program, which featured the novel The Tortilla Curtain by T.C. Boyle.
