What is a Book Club Kit?
A book club kit
contains 15 paperback copies of one title, a discussion guide to assist
book club leaders and when available, a large print copy of the same
title, and a DVD or video relating to the book. These items are placed
in a canvas tote for your convenience and checked out to you for six
weeks. Just grab it and go!
How do I Reserve a Kit?
Kits can be
reserved up to three years in advance so that your group can plan their
upcoming year and schedule the appropriate book kit for each month. You
must see your library’s book club kit manager to schedule kits.
Kits cannot be requested via the library catalog, however you
can see what kits are currently available for reserves by using the
General Keyword search in the library catalog, typing in the term “book
club kit” and then pressing “enter” on your keyboard. You may also
use the links below to search for a kit by age group.
