Book Club Kits
We're happy to offer sets of books for use by book clubs, with over 100 titles for adults and 9 titles for kids. Each kit comes with 8–10 copies of the same title, along with a discussion guide and supporting material. Don't forget we often have eBook copies of our book club titles via Libby or Hoopla.
We run several different book clubs at the Library – come join the discussion!
