Ramsey County Library introduces an easy way to start your own book club. We provide the books and all the information needed to have a great book discussion; all you need to add are the readers.
Each Book Club in a Bag tote contains ten copies of the selected book and a notebook with discussion questions, information on the author and suggested additional reading. The bags are checked out for six weeks and can be requested for pickup at any of our seven libraries.
Ramsey County Librarians have carefully selected 100 titles for you to choose from. The titles include a mix of fiction and nonfiction, covering a broad range of genres and topics. We are certain you will find a title of interest to your book club. To view the current Library catalog list, click here
"We wanted to make it easy for book clubs to get enough copies of the titles they want to read," says Mary Moran, Library Manager leading this project. "We also wanted to include information to help get the discussion started. I think the Book Club Bags will be a great addition to our collection."
If you are interested in starting a book club, the Library has many resources available to help you. Librarians can also recommend Internet sites, booklists, discussion guides and other resources to help make your book club a success.
