Arts EN ↓ 4 episodes

On the Same Page with KCPL is dedicated to bringing together a community of readers in Kanawha County and beyond. If you’re looking to explore a new genre or author, get book reviews and reading recommendations, and hear directly from readers, and library staff in the community, this podcast would offer that. We will also promote KCPL resources and events, especially ones involving reading or reading challenges. In short: we want to encourage community engagement with literature, promote library resources, and nurture a reading culture through an accessible platform.
