Abstract

The Big Read was developed by the National Endowment for the Arts to revitalize the role of culture in American society and encourage the reading of landmark literature. Each year since 2007, the DeKalb Public Library, Northern Illinois University, and Kishwaukee Community College have partnered to foster literacy in the community. This article describes innovative programming and encourages community college librarians to take the initiative by partnering with local libraries in hosting Big Read activities.
