Community Book Connection

Come together as a learning community.

Each year, members of the college community select a book that everyone is encouraged to read. A series of cultural and academic activities — films, plays, dance performances, debates, panels and lectures — are organized to support the project.

Traditionally, the book’s author is invited to speak on one of CCBC’s campuses. It’s a great way to strengthen our common human and intellectual bonds and to demonstrate how classroom discussion and activity are deeply connected to our lives in the everyday world.

Get involved in the community
