Feinberg Library's Popular Word Thursdays Series Returns


A Feinberg Library series featuring local writers is coming back to the SUNY Plattsburgh campus, starting Oct. 3.

The series, Word Thursdays, has writers reading from their published works and leading conversations about poetry and fiction. All events take place in the Reading Room of Feinberg Library and are free and open to the public.
