A selection committee of community leaders, librarians, students and educators in the Ann Arbor/Ypsilanti area met in late-October to choose one of three books as the focus for this year on the subject of 'What Makes Life Worth Living.'
The three book finalists are available in alternative formats for those who are unable to read or use printed materials due to a physical disability (blindness, macular degeneration, paralysis, multiple sclerosis, arthritis, dyslexia, etc.). Please contact the Washtenaw Library for the Blind and Physically Disabled at 1-734-327-4224.
