Two Book Groups at ALP Library

There are two book discussion groups at the library -- one meets from September to May, and one meets in July and August.  

Why two groups?  They're a little bit different from each other...

​

​

The September - May group introduces a selection of books that covers different genres and authors.  You may attend as many discussions as you'd like;  if you'd like to attend digitally, Zoom links are available.

​

​

​

​

The July - August group reads four books chosen by a committee, and each book in the series follows a theme.  If possible, it's nice to attend all of the sessions and watch the theme develop and grow.  See schedule below.
