Book Club in a Bag allows patrons to check out a kit complete with up to 10 copies of many of the most popular books available today. In addition to the books themselves, the kit comes in a convenient canvas bag that includes a pamphlet containing information about the book and the author and a set of discussion questions to help your book group's conversation along.
Each bag can be checked out for a six-week period, giving your group plenty of time to read and discuss whichever title you've chosen!
Book sets are listed below. To reserve one, fill out the Reservation Form, or call us at 401-739-5440, ext. 4.
