Ready-Made Book-Group-In-A-Bag
They're Here
!

Each kit has multiple copies of a title, a book review, author biography and discussion questions to be distributed by your discussion leader to get you started. Each bag may be checked out for two months.

We currently have eleven titles from which to choose. The group leader checks out all items in the kit on their own library card. Stop by the Circulation Desk for a list of available titles.

Library Book Groups

Several Groups exist at the Library to help you meet and
discuss books of interest.

  
  •   The "Coffee and a Book" group meets every other month and read popular fiction. Copies and registration are through the Circulation Desk.
  •   There is a F.A.N. (Families and Neighbors) Group that meets the first Wednesday of the month at 7:30 p.m. to discuss books with a light-hearted flair. Copies and registration are through the Youth Services Desk.
  •   Non-fiction book discussions are led by Sylvia Deutsch bi-monthly on the first Monday of the month at 10:00 a.m. Copies and registration are through the Circulation Desk.
