Mark Your Calendars: 2023 National Book Festival

ICYMI: The National Book Festival is just around the corner as well! Sponsored and hosted by the Library of Congress, this one-day extravaganza celebrates the American literary tradition across all genres and formats. Better still, you no longer need to be in Washington D.C. to enjoy the festivities. Courtesy of special funding, most of the main stage events will be livestreamed or recorded for broadcast after the fact.

Headliners will include novelists Rebecca Makkai and TJ Klune, U.S. Poet Laureate Ada Limón, and YA favorites Jesmyn Ward and Elizabeth Acevedo.
