Our staff also actively supports 120 book clubs in our community by recommending discussion titles and assisting club members in borrowing copies of the books discussed. Choose Authors and Themes from the drop-down menu under Book Clubs to see the list of over 200 authors for whose titles we have multiple-copy sets, and to see the books arranged by theme.

On the Book Clubs page you will also find links to our guidelines for book club support, the form your club can complete to register with us, recommended web sites for books clubs, and information about how your club can be “Booked for Dessert” at the library.
