Duluth Reads Together

Duluth Reads Together is a citywide celebration of books, community and the Duluth Public Library, held Sept. 18–20 as part of Minnesota Libraries Read Together.

Throughout the weekend, readers of all ages are invited to gather at Duluth Public Library locations and partner-businesses across the city. Together, these events create a book-and-library crawl that encourages people to explore Duluth, experience community spaces, and discover more of what the library has to offer.
