Resources for Book Clubs A recent Forbes article discusses how book clubs are thriving in the internet era and predicts that "In 2019, Book Clubs Will Be Big....to take an hour a month for a book club is a satisfying, enriching release that more and more people are coming to value." This month's issue of the Rocky Hill Life highlights our book discussion kit program. In addition to our own Mystery Book Club Discussion group, we are happy to support several local book clubs in identifying and finding great reads. We have put together more than 50 kits containing 10 copies of the same book along with discussion guides. We are also grateful to the Friends of the Cora J. Belden Library as well as some local book clubs for donating copies of books for our kits. |
