Since 2002, Spokane Is Reading has presented an annual one-book/one-community reading program to the greater Spokane area.

A partnership between Spokane Public Library, Spokane County Library District, and Auntie’s Bookstore, Spokane Is Reading encourages dialogue and builds community through a shared experience of literature. Each year, an author is invited for two events, which take place in the fall.

The 2025 program was made possible with financial support from: 

• Spokane Arts Grant (SAGA)
• Arts WA, Washington State Arts Commission Grant
• Friends of the Spokane Public Library
• Friends of Moran Prairie Library (SCLD)
• Friends of Cheney Library (SCLD)
• Donations and participation from the community

In a time when humanities and library programs are seeing budget cuts, your donation matters more than ever. 

A donation today will help fund next year’s author visit!
