NATION’S LIBRARIAN OF CONGRESS PROMOTES READING

Dr. Carla Hayden, the nation’s Librarian of Congress, is at the state library commission reading to students from the Mississippi School for the Deaf.

Congressman Gregg Harper asked Hayden to kick-off the Mississippi Book Festival held over the weekend at the state capitol.

“But to watch her work with children from the Mississippi Children for the Deaf and see her heart, I mean Dr. Hayden is truly, is truly a rock star,” said Harper.

Hayden is here to promote literacy and the joy of reading.
