The Great Books Foundation promotes reading, thinking, and the sharing of ideas for people of all ages.

Each year, thousands of teachers work with us to make high-quality literature and Shared Inquiry™    discussion a part of the K-12 curriculum. An estimated one million students improve their reading comprehension and critical thinking skills in Junior Great Books.

And readers across the country reaffirm for themselves that discussing their favorite book in a Great Books group is a powerful instrument for personal growth and social engagement.

Welcome to the Great Books community.
