The Library encourages reading not just by lending books, but by sponsoring book clubs as well. Come and join your fellow patrons in discussing the merits (and flaws) of various titles!
All of our Adult Book Clubs:
- Provide copies of the current reading selection at the Main Desk.
- Do not require registration.
- Welcome new members!
