Welcome to the 2026 One Book, Many Neighbors program series!

One Book, Many Neighbors is an annual series of programs hosted by libraries in and around Leavenworth County. Each year, a title is selected, and participating libraries host programs inspired by the book or related topics.

This year's selection is Dragon Teeth by Michael Crichton! A Western adventure novel set in 1876 during the "Bone Wars" of dinosaur fossil hunting in the American West, the story follows a Yale student who gets caught in the rivalry between real-life paleontologists Othniel Charles Marsh and Edward Drinker Cope.

Happy reading, and we hope to see you at your neighboring libraries for the events below!
