Book Club Kit Questions

Book Club Kit Discussion Questions

Book club kits are available at the library. Each kit contains 5 to 24 copies of a book and a set of discussion questions. One member of a club can check out the kit, distribute books to the club members, collect the books after discussion, and return the kit to the library. This is an easy way for a book club to find enough copies of a book for everyone in the club. The kits check out for six weeks. They are located in the library near the Spanish Collection, at the start of the Nonfiction section.

 
There are currently 21 fiction titles and 7 nonfiction titles in the collection. Click here for a brief description of each book.  Additional titles will be added..
 
If you have questions about the kits, would like help starting a book club, or would like to suggest a title to be added, please contact the Reference Department at reference@galesburglibrary.org or 309-343-6118.
