Celebrate National Library Week with author Romalyn Tilghman as she discusses her book about three women who come together to build a library and arts center in a Kansas town destroyed by a tornado. Their efforts echo the work of prairie women who raised money to buy books to fill the original Carnegie libraries, including 59 in Kansas, in the early 20th century. Copies of Tilghman's award winning book will be available for purchase and signing.
