Haldimand County Public Library launching new virtual book club

Residents aged 14 and above are invited to join the Haldimand County Public Library’s new virtual book club. Unlike other book clubs where everyone reads the same title, at B.Y.O.B. Club, you pick the titles you want to read.

Each month, there will be a new theme (mystery, banned books, bestsellers, etc.) and then YOU choose a title to read and discuss via Zoom. Titles read can be in print, digital (e-books) or audio formats. Meetings will take place on the third Tuesday of the month at 7pm. All sessions will be hosted by Library staff who will not only help with discussions but will also guide the readers towards their next choices.

The first meeting will take place Tuesday, May 18 at 7pm. For this inaugural meeting, everyone is encouraged to read a cookbook. It could be a family favorite, one you saw on the library’s social media posts or one written by a celebrity. Anything goes! Share your opinions about your selection, recommend it to others or seek suggestions for something better!

To register, e-mail kkrupicz@haldimandcounty.on.ca with the subject line BYOB or call your local library branch at 289-674-0400.
