Samani Public Library KAN x KAN Lectures: Reading Picnic
The Samani Public Library KAN x KAN Lecture series held a "Reading Picnic" outside on the library's lawn. The librarian held a talk where they recommended various books that they had handpicked for the event. As someone who always picks my own books and ends up reading the same things, it was a breath of fresh air.
There were even books about the local area.
Since it was a reading picnic, I was fascinated by the lunches that everyone brought.
