Book Club in a Bag

Palatine Public Library District

Book Club Logo Due to the popularity of book clubs, the Library has decided to make it easy for patrons to set up their own club by providing a Book Club in a Bag. You can check out a canvas tote bag filled with titles used for Library book discussions. We’ll also include a list of questions to use for discussion and tips for making your book club a success. Return the bag when your group is done and then check out another for your next club meeting.
