Book Club Bags
Book Club in a Bag is a book discussion program designed for you and your family, friends, or book group to read and discuss a great book together. We provide the books and materials to guide and inform your discussion. All you need to do is select a title, read, and get together!
Book Club in a Bag contains either six (6) or ten (10) print copies of a title, a folder with discussion questions to help the conversation along, and a zippered bag with an ID tag.
Any group member can check out the book club kit for their book group. The kit will be checked out for six (6) weeks and is not renewable. Book Club kit reservations are allowed by phone only. Book club kits can be sent via delivery, but must be approved by Diane Wright, Circulation Manager. Available titles are listed below.
Visit the Reference Desk or call us at 401-423-7280 for more information and title availability.
Book Club in a Bag is a free service provided by your library. Some book club kits are sponsored by the Friends of the Jamestown Philomenian Library and the Rhode Island Center for the Book via the Reading Across Rhode Island program.
