BC Libraries Present: Indigenous Fiction

A series of compelling author talks presented virtually by BC’s Public Library Community.

For the second year in a row, BC’s public libraries are hosting a virtual author series to bring new insights and voices to library users in every corner of British Columbia: BC Libraries Present.

Public libraries are known as centres of dialogue on many important ideas in their communities. To build upon that role, Public Library InterLINK has brought together many libraries, both big and small, to host these events and provide access to award-winning authors to library users across the province. For the second season of this series, the topic is Indigenous Fiction. Indigenous writers have been a crucial part of the literary landscape for a long time, with stories that bring important perspectives and capture the imaginations of diverse audiences. Indigeno us fiction in particular

is breaking ground with award-winning and bestselling novels that are shifting conversations and opening minds across the country.

The fall 2024 lineup, starting in September, will feature three phenomenal authors who have garnered top praise and huge readership across the country, providing an opportunity for

readers across BC to be part of a live conversation of their essential new books.

All events are hosted on the BC Libraries Present Crowdcast channel: https://www.crowdcast.io/@bclibraries-present

BC Libraries Present is a project of BC’s public library federations with the generous financial support of the Province of British Columbia through the Ministry of Municipal Affairs.
