The University of South Carolina’s annual Open Book Series is sponsored by USC’s College of Arts and Sciences and hosted by Elise Blackwell. It is a literary series, public course, and community read all in one.

In 2019 it will run Mondays and Wednesdays for four weeks: March 25 - April 17, 6-7 p.m. in the Campus Room of the Capstone Building. You are welcome to attend all eight nights as a public course or just come out to hear a new favorite author.

Each Monday will feature host Elise Blackwell or a guest speaker discussing that week's book, followed by the author's talk on Wednesday. All talks and author appearances run 6-7 p.m., including time for questions. Author visits conclude with a book-signing reception at 7 p.m.

Seating is first come, first served. Events are free and open to all, including students, faculty, staff, and the wider community.
