This is a one-hour community outreach event to promote and inform the community about Algoma Reads. Algoma Reads is a new course based on the five Canada Reads books. Inspired by Chief Shingwauk’s Vision, this course will invite members from across our campus and community to five public events to read these five books together. The public lectures will feature visiting writers and speakers. We are looking for community input and encouraging the community to vote in the CBC’s online “Suggest a theme for the next Canada Reads” survey: http://www.cbc.ca/books/2016/10/canada-reads-theme-survey.html.
