Community Book Clubs:
Community-led book clubs held in the Library
Are you interested in forming a book club, maybe with a particular focus like biographies, various genres, non-fiction, classics, etc.? Or something more outside the box, like “walk & talk”, combining physical and intellectual exercise? Whatever your interest, librarians can provide support to help get a new club up and running.
Call or come in to get a conversation started!
