Participating in a book group

We meet in the Rotary Heritage Room on the 3rd floor. You can get your book one month prior at the Readers Services Desk.

We offer the following book groups on a regular basis:

Tuesday Morning Group

The Tuesday morning group meets the first Tuesday of each month at 10:00 am.

Thursday Evening Group

The Thursday morning group meets the second Thursday of each month at 7:30 pm.

Books to Film

The Books to Film group meets a few times a year in a 1st floor meeting room. We show a film, then talk about it in comparison with the book. Snacks are served during the discussion.

We can help with your own book club too.

If you are looking for multiple copies of a book or help preparing for your next discussion, send us an email, or call us at 847-376-2913, or fill out this form:
