‘One Book’ to highlight life change

Marion City Library’s One Community-One Book project this year will feature “One Word That Will Change Your Life,” by Jon Gordon.

Because of COVID-19, there will be no in-person discussion of the book this year.

Instead, after patrons read the book, they may stop by the library and the staff will add their word to the display, or they may post their word on the Marion City Library’s social media page along with any positive comments they’d like to add.

The book will be available for check-out beginning March 17 and comments can be made through April14.

“One Word That Will Change Your Life,” will inspire readers to simplify their lives and work by focusing on just one word.

The book creates clarity, power, passion, and life change.

This is the fifth year of the One Community, One Book reading project in Marion.

The project centers on a community-wide reading of a single book and is dedicated to creating a shared conversation.

Through a shared reading experience, patrons will discuss what they are able to learn from each other and promote greater understanding.
