Ep 182: The CDA Library "Right to Read" Calendar
Update: 2025-09-12
Description
Library Foundation board members have revived a beloved idea from 20 years ago—a literary-themed calendar—but with a timely new twist: celebrating the Right to Read. Mary Sanderson, Bette Ammon, and Ruth Pratt discuss the role of the Foundation and why this fundraiser is so important to the preservation of the library, as well as process of producing the calendar.
The 16-month calendar highlights the Coeur d’Alene Public Library Foundation’s dedication to protecting and defending intellectual freedom. Each month showcases a book that has been challenged over the years, paired with playful parodies featuring local community members, leaders, and celebrities. Thanks to the work of libraries and librarians, these titles remain available for “all kinds of books for all kinds of people.” The calendar begins September 2025.
Fun, creative, and meaningful, the Right to Read Calendar is available for $35 at The Well-Read Moose, the Second Story Bookstore inside the library, or online at cdalibrary.org/about/library-foundation.
