ROADTRIP NATION: BEYOND BOOKS celebrates the value of public libraries and the community resources they provide. This two-part series shines a spotlight on the people behind the stacks - the community leaders who keep our libraries vibrant, dynamic and essential - as told through the eyes of three young adult "roadtrippers" driven by their own love of libraries. As Isabelle, Jenny and Maryan explore the varied communities served by libraries across America, they start to realize that the public library is an invaluable space for everyone - and a place where each of them can begin to carve out an impact of their own.
