Adult Book Club Sets

We have Book Club Sets for your reading group!

You can now borrow individual copies of our book club books! Just grab a copy from our Book Club Set shelf and check it out for 3 weeks just like any other library book. If you’d rather take multiple copies for your book group, you can still do that too!

Each set contains multiple copies.
