Conversations

In support of the Foundation's goal of bringing quality programming to the Rogers Public Library community, best- selling author James Patterson visited Rogers for two days in October.   

Patterson holds the New York Times bestsellers list record with 46 New York Times bestselling titles. In 2007, one of every fifteen hardcover novels sold was a Patterson title.

The Rogers Public Library Foundation's Conversations series hosted Homer Hickam, author of October Sky/Rocket Boys, in the fall of 2007 which kicked off the annual event. In 2008, Coversations hosted Nicholas Sparks, author of The Notebook.
