EPL Partners with Library Speakers Consortium

If you enjoy Euclid Public Library’s local author visits, now you can virtually visit with national best-selling authors. Euclid Public Library is partnering with the Libraries Speakers Consortium to present an ongoing series of free virtual talks featuring bestselling and award-winning authors from around the world.

The Library Speakers Consortium is a collaborative initiative that brings together more than 375-member libraries across 45 states. Their mission is to dramatically increase access to influential authors and thought leaders by offering high-quality online author talk programs to library patrons.

The talks will cover a wide range of fiction and nonfiction genres including historical fiction, contemporary fiction, romance, poetry, business, personal growth, social justice, history, art, culture and more. Patrons can register online to attend live virtual events with interactive Q&A sessions where participants can ask questions directly to the author. Also available is video recordings of past talks. Euclid patrons can access this service for free from a link on the Euclid Public Library website. 

Three live talks will be available each month. Scheduled for May are: Genius, Power, and Deception on the Eve of World War I - An Author Talk with Douglas Brunt on May 1 at 3:00 pm, A Murder Mystery, Family Story, & Love Letter to Strong Women Everywhere: Author Talk with Nina Simon on May 8 at 7:00 pm, and Asian American Representation in Literature: An Author Talk with Rebecca F. Kuang on May 21 at 7:00 pm.
