Denver Public Library takes its Nesse Istyari program to the Web

[Michael Martinez]

The Denver Public Library has created an information page about their Nesse Istyari, Young Scholars, program for Tolkien studies.
Launched by Heath Rezabek earlier this year, the program encourages young people to learn about Tolkien and share their impressions of Middle-earth and its stories through show and tell sessions.

Rezabek has been reading The Lord of the Rings for the Nesse Istyari and handing out information packets about selected topics. Teachers and parents are encouraged to join the program.

The official Web site is located at http://www.denver.lib.co.us/kids/newcool/istyari.html .

A Yahoo! Groups discussion list has also been created: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/istyari/ .
