Book Clubs

OnlineRead Books in Your Email

Looking for a great book or a new author to read? Would you like to sample a book before you commit to checking it out? Just give us your email address and five minutes of your day, and we’ll give you the exciting world of reading with our Online Book Clubs.
 
Online Book Clubs are a free service of the Library. Sign up today and start receiving chapters from popular books in your daily email. Each weekday, we’ll send you a portion of a book that takes only five minutes to read. You can choose what to read from a wide variety including fiction, nonfiction, romance, business, teen, and mystery. Sign up for one, or several!

Community 

Are you involved in a community book club? If so, your group is invited to take advantage of some of the titles in our Book Club Service Collection (a collection of multiple copies of certain titles which our library book clubs have used in their discussion groups).

Branch Libraries

Join us for fun and fellowship as we discuss plots, characters, and styles in various books. Each book club does a different book, and registration is usually required, so we suggest patrons call the individual branches to reserve their spot and check out the upcoming titles.
