How can I start a Book Club?
Answer
The American Library Association has a fantastic guide to starting, hosting, and facilitating a book club. Their guide includes advice, useful websites, and recommended guidebooks.
When selecting books, consider titles Smyrna Public Library already has in its print and digital collections. Besides the regular print copy, Smyrna Library may also have a copy in large print, Book on CD, eBook, and/or eAudiobook. Having multiple formats can make it easier for more people to participate in your discussion.
If you have selected a title not owned by Smyrna Public Library, feel free to make a purchase request to the Adult Services team. We will consider your request for purchase and get back to you.
Good luck with your club!
