A group of people all holding a book sit around a living room and discuss the book.

Book Club Kits include everything you need to run a book club: 12 copies of a book (including one large print when available) and reading guides with author information, discussion questions, and read-alike suggestions. You’ll also find tips on starting and running a successful book club in each kit.

Anyone with a Chinook Arch member library card can check out Book Club Kits, by placing a hold in the catalogue or asking library staff for help. Book Club Kits can be checked out for 6 weeks, and renewed once. 

Patrons with print disabilities can access books for book clubs through CELA - the Centre for Equitable Library Access.

Titles for Book Club Kits are selected by a committee of librarians from Chinook Arch Regional Library System and Lethbridge Public Library. To learn more about our selection guidelines or to suggest a title for consideration, please contact us at arch@chinookarch.ca.
