About

See YOU at the Library encourages people to connect to reading by finding titles that relate to them in identity and experiences and by exploring diverse titles that reflect our diverse population in Suffolk. Throughout the year we will host themed events and create book lists showcasing titles that reflect our community.

Community Input

Find our See YOU at the Library displays in all of our locations to submit the title and author of a book with which you identify. Submit anonymously or include your contact information to be entered into our monthly raffle drawing for a prize pack of books.

Have a title you'd like to see in our collection? Recommend a title for purchase for consideration.

Online Engagement

Share your participation on social media using #SeeYOUatTheLibrary and #SuffolkPublicLibrary. Post about a favorite diverse read, take a selfie with a book you feel represents you or check in to our library when you attend one of our classes or events.

Shelf Reflections

Throughout the year we're asking community members what book they would like to be in and why. Visit our Shelf Reflections playlist to see what people say and check back frequently for even more responses.

What to Read Next
