A Choose-Your-Own-Book club!

(from americanpressinstitute.org) "“The purpose of journalism,” write Bill Kovach and Tom Rosenstiel in The Elements of Journalism, “is not defined by technology, nor by journalists or the techniques they employ.” Rather, “the principles and purpose of journalism are defined by something more basic: the function news plays in the lives of people.”"

During this meeting, we'll explore all facets of journalism. Looking for inspiration? Browse and reserve on the catalog: https://bit.ly/2P0u4vk

The Genre Reading Group selects topics and readers select their own book within the topic.  Reading choices are shared and discussed in a roundtable format.  For more information, contact Holley at 205.445.1117 or hwesley@eolib.org.
