Established in 2007 by the Leatherby Libraries, the Community of Readers is the summer reading program for Chapman University. This program is open to everyone who has borrowing privileges at the Leatherby Libraries and a current library account, including students, faculty, staff, and alumni. Members select books from the Leatherby Libraries and receive prizes upon submission of their first review. The only requirement is that books must be obtained through the Leatherby Libraries.

Book Review
You don't have to be a rower to enjoy this book. It is the thrilling story of how the US rowing team defeated Hitler's elite crew in the 1936 Berlin Olympics. This book does an excellent job translating a somewhat mysterious sport to the page, engaging even those who have no knowledge of the sport.
