Prepare To Discuss the World!

We invite you to join Cherrydale Library's Great Decisions Discussion Group, which meets at 6:30 p.m. on the third Monday of each month.

Great Decisions is America's largest civic discussion program on world affairs and foreign policy issues facing the country. The Foreign Policy Association selects critical foreign policy issues and participants are asked to read the topic in advance of each meeting. Copies of the Briefing Book are available at the library's service desk to check out. You must register for the program to reserve your Briefing Book. This discussion group is facilitated by an experienced volunteer.
