News about the Ath Book Club

After an overwhelming response to our decision to run a second Book Club 2010, we find orselves making arrangements for a third group!

The first two Ath Book Clubs are both now full, but we are taking names of people who would be interested in joining a book club which will meet at 12 noon on the second Thursday of the month.

The library purchases up to 6 copies of the book being discussed each month, with each book club member being able to borrow the book for two weeks. The books and handouts are the same for each book club so if you can't make your regular session, you can enquire at the Library about coming along to one of the other groups.

After both Book Clubs have discussed the books, ratings and a summary will be compiled from the discussions and published under the Book Club Discussion heading on this page.

The Ath Book Club is free with your membership. If you would like to attend, please contact us at This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it .
