Oh, book clubs. Love to be in one, hate to organize one? Well, look no further than the Washington County Library Instant Book Club Kits. Everything you need to get started for your own book discussion group in included in the kit’s canvas bag. All you have to do is add readers!
The Instant Book Club Kits are just one of many resources available to Washington County library cardholders. Each kit contains 10 copies of one title, discussion questions about the title, and information about the author. A kit is checked out to a single group member who is responsible for all of the materials. The group may keep the kit for 6 weeks.
We also add in additional resource information about organizing book clubs and using the library to find supplementary materials.
