Help choose next January’s all-community read. Voting open through August 12.

For over a decade, the Estes Valley Library and our local partners have been celebrating literacy and community by bringing people together around the shared reading of a single book. Through discussions and special activities, One Book One Valley invites us to learn together through the power of stories and imagination.
