KLC Member Book Club

The Kentucky League of Cities Book Club is another way for KLC members to connect. It will highlight books focused on Kentucky communities, programs, individuals, and other exciting topics relevant to cities and leadership. 

KLC's first virtual discussion was held on June 29 with Dr. William Turner, author of The Harlan Renaissance: A Memoir of Black Life in Appalachian Coal Towns. View a recording of that book club session here.

Watch for future book club selections coming later this year.
