Loveland Loves to Read
Loveland Loves to Read Mission Statement
- The mission of Loveland Loves to Read is to bring our community together through the shared joy of reading.
- One Book, One Community — Each year, we choose one exceptional book to get Loveland reading, talking, and connecting.
- Celebrate Books & the Arts — We celebrate the power of books, libraries, and the arts to inspire, entertain, and bring people together.
- Meet the Author — The highlight of our year is bringing renowned authors to Loveland for an unforgettable evening with the storytellers behind the books.
- Powered by Volunteers — Loveland Loves to Read is organized entirely by a dedicated volunteer committee.
- Supported by Our Community — Ticket sales, reader donations, and generous business sponsors make it all possible.
The Friends of the Loveland Public Library provide various services and support to the independent Loveland Loves to Read committee as part of our interest in promoting literacy in our community. |
