The bus visit coincides with the Jews of Czestochowa exhibit opening at the library this month. In conjunction with the exhibit, Book TV will interview Polish journalist and author Konstanty Gebert.
The Book TV Bus is traveling the country, stopping at local libraries, bookstores, and book festivals along the way. In partnership with the local Comcast affiliate, the Book TV Bus offers tours of its studio set, participation in an interactive demonstration about Book TV programming, the opportunity to learn how a television show is produced, and a chance to sign up for programming alerts.
