Book Club in a Bag
Whether you've always wanted to get a book club started but just didn't know how or your existing book discussion group is looking for an easier way to select books, Hedberg Public Library's Book Club in a Bag may be just what you need. Bags are typically checked out to one library cardholder for a six-week period. Due dates can be adjusted to meet the needs of your discussion group schedule. Visit the Checkout Desk for details.
Each BCIAB is packaged in a canvas tote and includes:
- 7-8 copies of the selected title (books, audiobooks, and/or DVDs)
- Discussion questions
- Biographical information on the author
- A selection of book reviews and a list of read-alikes
