Book Club Sets
We now offer Book Club Sets for checkout. Several dozen different books are available.
How do I check out a book club set?
Book club sets are available at the library. The books check out individually so you can check out as many as you need for your club.
How do I return the books?
You can return the books together as a set or individually, whichever is easiest for you. There are no fines on the book club sets.
What happens if I lose a book?
The person who checks out the set is responsible for every book checked out. They are responsible for paying the full cost of the lost item plus a $3 processing fee.
