Each year we observe Brian Doyle Day on November 6 (Brian's birthday), honoring the novelist and essayist who was a longtime Lake Oswegan and a tireless supporter of Lake Oswego Public Library. We hope you will join us in remembering Brian Doyle by stopping by the library and sharing a comment or thought inspired by Brian, taking home a Brian Doyle bookmark, and in practicing his affecting message: "Be tender and laugh."
The library is located at 706 Fourth Street, Lake Oswego.

Location: The 10 O'Clock Church in Beavercreek.
