Join App State’s Sue Polanka for an inspired event that pairs a discussion of the “The Bookwoman of Troublesome Creek” by Kim Michele Richardson with Appalachian moonshine.
The book illuminates the story of the ‘packhorse librarians’ in Eastern Kentucky in the 1930s/40s. Polanka joined App State as the dean of University Libraries in fall 2021 with more than three decades of experience as a librarian at public, state, and academic libraries.
