Call for readers for libraries’ fourth annual Read-A-Thon
Celebrate reading by sharing a story, poem or excerpt from a favorite book during the George A. Smathers Libraries’ Read-A-Thon March 27-30 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on the colonnade in front of Library West on the Plaza of the Americas.
The Read-A-Thon is a lively, fast-paced and casual celebration of reading.
Here’s how it works: Each day, March 27-30, from 11:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m., (except Tuesday which is children’s day and begins at 10:00) UF faculty, staff and students, along with community members read ten-minute segments from their favorite book. Listeners meander in and out to listen for a few minutes or for an hour. There are all kinds of readings - adventure, mystery, humor, poetry, history, philosophy, children’s books, short stories - you name it!
