Book Clubs & Reading Groups
Have you ever wanted to be part of a book club or a reading group?
We're planning to introduce book clubs and would like to invite anyone who's interested in participating in them to register their interest.
Book clubs are a great way of reading new books and meeting people. The clubs will meet in the library on last wednesday of each month and be limited in size to about 10 readers. We supply the books and some discussion notes and all you have to do is read and come along to the meetings.
The first meeting is scheduled to take place on Wednesday 25th July starting at 6.30 pm at the HJ Daley Library. You'll be reading Thomas Keneally's latest book "The widow and her hero".
To register your interest call David or Carolyn on 46454415.
