Authors Louis Bayard, Maureen Corrigan and David Ignatius join Library staff and volunteers to tell the story of the festival, its origins and how it has grown and changed throughout the years. This video was produced as a special project by Daniel Baxter and Kellie Shanaghan, two students who participated in the Library of Congress Junior Fellows Summer Intern Program in 2018, the 18th year of the National Book Festival.
