With our Book Discussion Sets, it's easy to check out copies for your whole club.

Brooklyn Public Library loves book clubs, and gathering people around the shared experience of a book is central to our mission. Reading as a social activity prompts a deeper relationship with the books we love. To help foster the social experience of reading, we've made having a book club easier by establishing special collections!

Features

Our new and growing collection of Discussion Sets are optimized for book clubs, featuring a collection of titles curated by our expert staff. Titles included in our Book Discussion feature an extended loan period, and we'll offer related book discussions at neighborhood libraries throughout the borough.

  • Sets are 10–15 copies, which you can reserve individually or for your entire club (to reserve multiple copies of a single title, ask for assistance from library staff)
  • Titles check out for 60 days, providing time not only to read your selection, but to coordinate your discussion 
  • Titles are curated by our experienced staff, and are chosen to promote lively discussion
