Speaking of libraries (and, frankly, who isn’t?), the Saddlebrook Branch of the Omaha Public Library is looking to host a Read Comics in Public Day Meetup on August 28th. Library specialist Micki Dietrich tells us, “right now I am planning on having an event at the suburban branch that I work at, but I may be able to get other staff to host events at some of our other 11 branches across the city.”
Honestly, I can’t say I know much about Omaha outside of Saddle Creek Records; 90s rap-rock outfit, 311; and their steaks [pictured], which my meat-eating friends tell me good things about — but heck, any city with a library system so supportive of RCIPD is all right in our book! Anyone interested in participating in the Omaha meetup should e-mail Dietrich at mdietrich [at] omahalibrary [dot] org.
Oh, and Dietrich adds, “we would also love to use the poster that you have to help advertise our events, but it is geared toward a comic book shop.” Good call, Micki. We’re working on a library-centric version, as we speak.
