FHL partners with KBBI AM 890 each week for Reading Between the Lines
READING BETWEEN THE LINES --- Book reviews, upcoming events, and “audio bibliographies” may be heard every Sunday morning at 9:00 a.m. on KBBI. Joy Griffin and Cleo Webb recorded the weekly radio show for years. We now have a whole group of folks who trade off each week to bring you notable gems from the shelves of the Homer Public Library! Tune in to KBBI (AM 890) on Sunday mornings to hear more!
