Welcome to Our Book Clubs!

WPL has two book clubs, one which meets at the Main Library (35 Albert Street), the other at the McCormick Branch (500 Parkside Drive). Both are open clubs, which allows for people to drop in and attend once in a while, or to come faithfully every month.

The two book clubs read different titles each month. You are welcome to attend one or both of the clubs.
