Program Description

Event Details

Books for Breakfast meets on the 3rd Tuesday every month at 9:30 am. 

We are currently meeting by both Zoom and In Person. Please indicate which way you plan to attend!

The Personal Librarian by Marie Benedict is based on the real life of Belle da Costa Greene, who was forced to pass as white while working as J. P. Morgan’s personal librarian. She crafted a lasting legacy in the form of “The Morgan” collection, an icon in New York City.

For people who attend the group regularly, a hold will be placed for you each month in time for the next month's book to arrive by our meeting date. If you are not a regular attender, please place a hold yourself or contact the library to place the hold for you.
