UCSB Reads 2025 Events
UCSB Reads 2025 will launch in January with a free book giveaway for students. Throughout the winter and spring quarters (January–June 2025), the Library will sponsor talks, book clubs, workshops, and other learning, experiential, and social events to explore the book’s themes.
All UCSB Reads 2025 events are free and open to the public unless otherwise noted.
This page will be updated as new events are added. Sign up for the UCSB Library Newsletter and get information about upcoming UCSB Reads events delivered directly to your inbox.
