This Saturday, August 31, join us for our 19th Annual National Book Festival. Starting at 9:00 a.m. at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center, more than a hundred best-selling authors, novelists, historians, poets, and children’s writers will take the stage, including U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

While at the festival, come visit the Law Library of Congress table located at the Expo Floor, where you can learn more about our services in a fun game of trivia, get one of our popular gavel pencils, and interact with our librarians. The full National Book Festival schedule can be found here: //www.loc.gov/events/2019-national-book-festival/schedule/
