It started out as such a good year for Montana Poets Laureate Melissa Kwasny and M.L. Smoker.
Quote
âMandy and I believe poetry is a necessary â a crucial â medicine for these times, because it is the language of the heart, of feeling, of connection between oneâs life and anotherâs.â
â Melissa Kwasny
Named Poets Laureate by Gov. Steve Bullock July 31, 2019, their inaugural event was the Billings Big Read in November 2019, where they gave a poetry reading and joined national poet laureate Joy Harjo, who was the focus of the Big Read.
It was such an exciting and auspicious launch which included Harjo playing her saxophone during her reading and later there was a salsa dance party, recalled Kwasny, who is based in Boulder.Â

One of my favorite end of the year traditions is gathering staff picks for books, audiobooks, and movies, not just from my own coworkers, but also from staff members at our neighboring libraries, too. I hope you enjoy seeing what your area librarians have been loving this year and find a few things to add to your list to read, listen to, or watch in the new year.
Your local library would love to lend these items to you. Ask your local library about availability or requesting the item through interlibrary loan. These items also could be great gifts to give for the holidays. Check in with your local bookstore. Shopping local helps our communities thrive.
