| One Book One Community: Cannery Row |
 October is the month designated for Kitsap Regional Library's One Book One Community Program. Our book this year is Cannery Row by Nobel Prize-winner author John Steinbeck. KRL's monthly programs revolve around the novel, Steinbeck's works, and the spirit of the time.
Nationally known Steinbeck Scholar Michael K. Hemp is lending his expertise to help us better understand the atmosphere and context of Cannery Row.
