NEA Big Read is a program of the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) designed to broaden our understanding of our world, our communities, and ourselves through the joy of sharing a good book. Orange County Library System is one of 84 not-for-profit organizations to receive a grant to host an NEA Big Read project between September 2021-September 2022. Showcasing a diverse range of contemporary titles that reflect many different voices and perspectives, the NEA Big Read aims to inspire conversation and discovery. This year, Orange County Library System, in partnership with Valencia College, celebrates The Call of the Wild by author Jack London. Visit our locations for a free copy of The Call of the Wild, while supplies last.  Many events will take place from January 9, 2022- February 9, 2022.  Register for an NEA Big Read event today!
