Libraries explore themes in novel ‘Homegoing’
Champaign County’s library systems will participate in a virtual program rooted in Tipp City.
The Tipp City Public Library has been selected as one of 300 libraries to participate in Libraries Transforming Communities: Focus on Small and Rural Libraries, an American Library Association (ALA) initiative that helps library workers better serve their small and rural communities.
Project partners include the Tipp City Public Library, Tipp City Exempted Village Schools, Dayton Literary Peace Prize, Triad High School, St. Paris Public Library, Champaign County Library and the Mechanicsburg Public Library.
The competitive award comes with a $3,000 grant that will help explore themes in the novel Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi. There will be three online conversations on Zoom and one in-person event. The author, Gyasi, will take part in a fourth conversation on Oct. 15 in the Center for the Performing Arts at Tippecanoe High School.
