Shortlist Readings - November 2010

Four Shortlist Readings are held each year, in Regina, Saskatoon, and one rural location each in northern and southern Saskatchewan. The readings provide the opportunity for the public to hear from four of the 2010 shortlisted authors at each event, have their books signed, and purchase their books on-site.

The Shortlist Reading events generate interest, excitement, and pride for authors and publishers throughout the province, as well as providing authors with opportunities to meet their readers. They instill a sense of community among Saskatchewan’s authors, publishers, and the reading public.
