The Broader Bookshelf Reading Challenge encourages readers to expand their horizons and explore new authors, genres, and topics they might not otherwise discover. Launched in 2017, the program offers fresh reading prompts each year designed to inspire participants to broaden their reading list and engage with diverse voices. Author events throughout the year feature writers whose works fulfill the prompts, providing opportunities for readers to connect with authors and deepen their understanding of different perspectives.
