About Alaska Reads:

Every two years, the Alaska Reads committee chooses a publication by a living Alaskan author. The author travels throughout Alaska discussing their work at book discussion groups, libraries, bookstores, museums and cultural centers, and through radio broadcasts and social media. Alaska Center for the Book, which coordinates the program, has partnered with the Alaska State Library, the Alaska Humanities Forum, and the Rasmuson Foundation to provide books and author travel.
