Resources for Book Groups
The library has a collection of book group books available to check out in multiple copies. You may check out as many or as few copies as you like. These books circulate for 8 weeks at a time, with no renewals.
Choosing a book for your book group? For inspiration, click on the Book Clubs tab in BookBrowse.
Can't find questions for your book online? Check out Novelist's Book Club Resources (under Quick Links).
If your book club members read e-books on tablets, check out the Hoopla Digital Book Club Hub. Hoopla's list of popular e-book fiction is also a good place for book groups to find their next e-book selection.
Library book groups are meeting over Zoom while the library is closed. You may also call in by phone. Please contact us if you'd like to join the next meeting.
