The Local Readery tent at an outdoor market, with shelves of books by Utah authors
At the marketsThe tent, the shelves, and a letter board that says the whole idea: books by Utah authors.
“Connecting books to readers — and writers to the community.”

The Local Readery · Utah, since 2025

The story

Utah has the writers. The shelf was the missing piece.

Friends would name a favorite kind of book, and the Utah author who had already written it was still a stranger to them. That gap is why the tent goes up.

Every title on the table is by a Utah author. We carry that shelf to markets and gatherings from Park City to Farmington and down to Provo.
