| Welcome to Baton Rouge’s One Book One Community Web site. OBOC is a community-wide reading program. People from all walks of life are encouraged to read and discuss important issues raised by a single book. |
 |
|
Each year two books are chosen as official One Book One Community selections. A variety of community partners collaborate to bring the city interesting programming and events throughout the year. The point of One Book One Community is to provide readers with a shared reading experience that leads to open dialogue. Anyone can participate. Pick up the CURRENT book at your local library or bookstore and get reading! Learn how to participate in the program by clicking on the CURRENT Book icon above. |
