Milwaukee Public Library Foundation

We had a fantastic time at this year's Friends of The Milwaukee Public Library - Bookseller Spring Literary Luncheon! Christina Baker Kline gave a great historical background to her new book, The Foursome (it promises to be a real page turner). As we do every year, we enjoyed the great food, conversation, and community.

Thanks to everyone who attended - we can't wait to see you next year!

MPL is a cherished anchor institution because of more than just books. Your local library plays host to amazing events every year, like Milwaukee Zine Fest!

This year's edition of Zine Fest is Saturday at the Central Library. Check out this celebration of DIY creative literary work, small press publishing, and other independent, self-created wonders in magazine-like formats.
