Celebrate National Poetry Month @ Gumberg Library

Create a poem, share a poem, or take a poem with you when you participate in Gumberg Library's "Poem in Your Pocket" event. On the 4th floor of the library near Room 408 there is a panel display for you to read a poem, post a poem, or just take a poem with you and share it.

On April 17, mobile users can instantly celebrate Poem in Your Pocket Day by reading poems and sharing them with co-workers, family, friends, and even strangers.

The entire collection of over 2,500 poems on Poets.org, as well as hundreds of biographies and essays, is also available in a mobile format which provides free and direct access to poetry in the palm of your hand.

To reach the mobile site, simply go to www.poets.org/m. You can also preview the mobile site from your desktop computer.
