Sorry to cross-post immediately after Barbara Beaton's message! (I should learn to do a search first before impulsively posting... )

Please share your amazing bookclub suggestions with both of us!

Thanks,
Andrea

Hi all,
I'm curious what kind of bookclubs work for your Library patrons? Specifically, I'm interested in those that are non-traditional...

I've heard some libraires have success with silent book clubs where folks just gather and read silently...
We have a very successful bookclub focused around food/cooking titles.

Also interested in hearing creative ways to reduce staff effort. Do you have a trusted volunteer that helps to select, read, facilitate the bookclub(s)?

What works for your library patrons??

Thanks!
Andrea
