September 30, 2010 - Literary Society Presents New York Times Bestselling Author Lisa Scottoline, author of 17 novels, including her latest, THINK TWICE. She also writes a column for the Philadelphia Inquirer titled "Chick Wit" which is her witty and fun take on life from a woman's perspective. Lisa's books have solidly landed on all the major bestseller lists including The New York Times, USA Today, The Wall Street Journal, Publisher's Weekly, Washington Post, and The Los Angeles Times. Lisa's novels are known for their fast-paced action, page-turning suspense, and splash of humor, but they are remembered for their warm and down-to-earth characters, who resonate with readers and reviewers long after they have finished the books. http://scottoline.com

The Library’s Literary Society was launched in 2005, the Library’s 125th anniversary year. The Literary Society is comprised of generous individuals who care deeply about the Library and would like to bring to our community special programs, including noted authors, to celebrate reading and literacy.
The Literary Society’s first author event, in October 2005, featured Mary Doria Russell, who discussed her Pulitzer Prize nominated historical novel, “A Thread of Grace,” and the journey of creating it. Each year, the Literary Society features noted authors such as: award-winning crime novelist Laura Lippman, Cleveland’s famous mystery author Les Roberts, Scott London -internationally known journalist and photographer, and New York Times Best-Selling Author Adriana Trigiani.
"Let's Talk Sports" - The sixth Literary Society event was a night of sports and fun at Main Library. David Lee Morgan Jr., author and sports reporter for the Akron Beacon Journal, talked sports and more. Kelly Pavlik made a special appearance. see photos of the event
