Help Select the Book for 2010!

If you'd like to help select the book that Mountain View will be reading in 2010, please contact Karin Bricker (karin.bricker@mountainview.gov), (650) 526-7042.

A planning meeting will take place in March 2010, with a date to be finalized later.

In the meantime, think of books that lend themselves to good discussion and diverse activities. Ask others you know, too!
