To help with understanding of the current global pandemic, the Library of Congress National Book Festival Presents program is offering a virtual multipart series with authors who have written books about widespread diseases and the worldwide response to them. The talks will be available on social media channels such as Facebook and YouTube, on the Library's website, and in some cases on C-SPAN.

Two talks in this series "Understanding the Pandemic," are already available, and the third, "Spillover: Animal Infections and the Next Human Pandemic" premieres tonight, Thursday, April 30, at 7 pm ET. The full schedule:

“The Great Influenza: The Story of the Deadliest Pandemic in History." This 2004 bestseller has become a bestseller once again. John M. Barry talked with David Rubenstein, co-chair of the National Book Festival, on the 1918 influenza pandemic that ravaged the world even as World War I was being fought on the ground in Europe. Now available for viewing.

"No One Was Immune: Mapping the Great Pandemics from Columbus to COVID-19." The Library of Congress's John Hessler and Marie Arana discuss the sweep of history from the 1500s small pox pandemic that decimated the indigenous population of the Americas to the meticulous work that is being done now to map COVID-19. Now available for viewing.

"Spillover": Animal Infections and the Next Human Pandemic." Prize-winning science writer David Quammen discusses “Spillover,” in which he tracks the animal origins of human diseases through the centuries, with David Rubenstein. Premieres Thursday, April 30, 7 p.m. ET

"Once Upon a Time I Lived on Mars: Space, Exploration and Life on Earth." NASA astronaut and scientist Kate Greene went into the mouth of a volcano in a space capsule called Mars and spent several months in isolation, in the dark, doing research. She has a lot to say about the stress, loneliness and other challenges of sequestration -- and all from a very novel and unique perspective. Interview by the Library's Marie Arana. Premieres Thursday, May 14, 7 p.m. ET

"Why It's Hard to Know Things, Lately, and How COVID-19 Will Go Down in History." Bestselling historian and Harvard professor Jill Lepore discusses how the current pandemic, its effects and our reaction to them say something very real about America in this moment and in the historical record that will emerge from it. Interview by the Library's John Haskell. Premieres Thursday, May 21, 7 p.m. ET

All talks will be available on Library of Congress Facebook and YouTube channels, on the Library's website, and in some cases on C-SPAN.
