Santa Cruz County bibliophiles who want to hear in-depth discussions with their favorite authors will soon have one more avenue to do so. Santa Cruz Public Libraries will be launching its Virtual Author Talk platform to bring these discussions right into library patrons' homes.
Libraries not only create easy access to literature but foster a love of reading through engaging readers in activities. As always, Aptos Friends of the Santa Cruz County Public Libraries has a bevy of activities, which are centered around Dave Eggers' "The Monk of Mokha" for this season's Our Community Reads program.
