Book clubs can borrow sets of selected titles for their members to read and discuss.

Each book club has a single membership card. 

We keep a list of clubs seeking more members to give to people wishing to join a club.

How the Book Club membership works

• Each book club nominates a convenor who is in charge distributing items to members and making sure they are returned to the library by the due date.
• The convenor is given a list of titles.
• Groups can reserve up to two titles at onetime.
• There are eight copies of each title in the Book Club Collection.  For larger groups, more copies may be available from the general collection.
• To allow time for distribution and collection, book club sets have an eight-week loan.
• Book club sets can be borrowed from, and returned to any of our libraries or outreach centres.
• There is no charge to borrow from the book club collection.
• New titles are added to the book club collection each month, but the library accepts donations to expand the collection.
• Groups wanting to make a donation should consult with us in advance to check we do not already have that set.

The book club convenor needs to fill in our Book Club Membership form.
