Great Decisions
Great Decisions, which is put together by the national Foreign Policy Association, is America's largest discussion program on world affairs. The program model involves reading the Great Decisions Briefing Book, watching the video series and meeting in a Discussion Group to discuss the most critical global issues facing America today. Each year, eight topics are chosen by a panel of experts from the Foreign Policy Association.
With the generous support of the Friends of the Library, the Summit County Library has presented Great Decisions since 2020. In 2025 we once again have 75 enthusiastic participants.
