GLASGOW, Ky. — The South Central Kentucky Cultural Center will host a book fair later this month as a fundraiser for its efforts to preserve and share the history and heritage of the region.

The inaugural event, called Books in the Barrens, will bring together regional authors who will offer their books for sale and have an opportunity to meet with readers.
