With the New Year comes a season for new beginnings: whether you want to cook more, get outside more, start new practices, or just live better in general. Librarians Kellie Porter and Jessica Rudden-Dube join us on The Point to talk about New Year's resolutions, and inspiring books that can support them. Mindy Todd hosts.
