Welcome to the fair

May 30, 2004|By Mary A. Dempsey, Commissioner, Chicago Public Library.

On behalf of the Chicago Public Library, it is my pleasure to join the Chicago Tribune in welcoming you to the 20th annual Printers Row Book Fair.

On June 5 and 6, our historic neighborhood will again be filled with renowned writers and poets, as well as adults and families who celebrate and enjoy great books together. The Chicago Public Library is privileged to be a part of this important literary fair as a participant and as a venue for author appearances and readings at the Harold Washington Library Center.

Chicago enjoys a rich literary history and is home to a vibrant community of living writers and poets.

Thanks to the support of Mayor Richard M. Daley and the people of Chicago, the 78 locations of the Chicago Public Library are working to create a culture of reading in every neighborhood through programs such as One Book, One Chicago; our annual summer reading program for children; monthly book discussion groups in neighborhood libraries; and the annual Chicago Book Festival in October.

Enjoy the marvelous offerings of the book fair and be sure to visit your local Chicago Public Library to continue this celebration of books throughout the year.
