Overdueing It: The Rhode Island Library Podcast

This week Tayla is joined by Lynda Lacava, a staff member at North Providence Union Free Library and Kate Lentz, director of the Rhode Island Center for the Book, to talk about Lynda’s recent accomplishment of visiting every library in Rhode Island. Also, Kate shares the Challenge that the Rhode Island Center for the Books encouraged families to visit 5 libraries this summer.
