Library Discussion Groups

We offer two reader discussion groups for patrons interested in different types of reading experiences. The first is our Adult Book Club, which features one fiction or non-fiction title a month. Titles are chosen for their literary quality, strong review, or unique subject matter, and always offer variety. The library provides books on loan to patrons interested in participating in the club, which meets the first Monday of each month at 6:30 PM. Participants always engage in lively discussions, welcoming diverging perspectives and opinions.

For patrons "Too busy to read a novel!" the second group, Short & Sweets, features one short story a month. Stories average 10-20 pages in length, and are available at the library. Participants meet the third Wednesday of each month at 10:00 AM in our Cafe area for a fun and engaging discussion over homemade desserts.

Both groups are always open to new participants.

Book Club Discussion Kits

Start your own reading group with friends or family at home! We lend READ: "Read 'Em And Discuss" kits to patrons locally and within the PrairieCat system. We feature both fiction and non-fiction titles. Each kit includes 10 copies of a specific title and a group discussion guide--all packaged together in an easy-to-carry plastic tote!
