Join Us For The January News Nerd Book Club Hangout

Posted on by Meredith Melragon

Thanks to everyone who has participated in our Nerd News Book Club in our first couple of months out of the gates and to everyone who voted to help us choose the book for next month.

The January meeting will be held via hangout on Wednesday, January 14th at 1 pm (ET).

The invite and link to RSVP are here (and here is a direct link to the Google hangout for quick reference).

The Smithsonian offers a short primer on Ida M Tarbell, seen in this 2002 stamp. She reminds us:

"Imagination is the only key to the future. Without it none exists—with it all things are possible"
– Ida M. Tarbell

Hope to see you for hangout next month and if you'd like to suggest books for future hangouts you can always do that over on our reading list hackpad.

Happy reading!
