St. Paul Library Reader's Circle
New!! Book Club in a Bag
Does your book group have trouble finding enough copies of a book for all of your members? You can now borrow multiple copies of one book together in a Book Club Bag. Click here for more information about Book Club in a Bag.
Both book clubs make use of our Book Club in a Bag program. The next month's books are handed out at each meeting. The September books will be available on August 11th for the St. Paul Reader's Circle members at the St. Paul Branch, and on August 17th at the Main Library for BPL Book Club members. Please call ahead to reserve your copy.
The St. Paul Library Reader's Circle meets at 2:00 p.m. on the 3rd Friday of the month at the St. Paul Branch Library. Everyone is welcome!
