One Book Northland 2020

This is the 19th year that the One Book project has brought Northland communities together to celebrate reading. The One Book Northland committee is partnering with the Clayton Jackson McGhie Memorial and has selected the New York Times bestseller, Just Mercy by Bryan Stevenson as the 2020 One Book Northland title.

The One Book Northland Opening Event is March 24 at UMD's Kathryn A. Martin Library 4th Floor Rotunda. Join us as Jordon Moses, CJMM coordinator, explains the concept that inspired CJMM to plan events recognizing the 100 years since the lynching of three innocent Black men in Duluth on June 15, 1920. Learn what is planned in the community and how you can participate.

The One Book Northland event guide is digitally available here and paper copies can be found at all Duluth Public Library locations.
