The Jake Epp Library in Steinbach, MB hosts two adult book clubs each month:
- 6:30 PM on the last Wednesday of the month (adults only, must be 16+ to attend).
- 9:30 AM on the last Friday of the month (child-friendly; adults are welcome to bring children if they do not have childcare. Playtime will be set up for young children while adults discuss the book).
Adults may attend one or both book clubs each month. If you require a copy of the book, please bring your library card. The library will have a limited number of books available to check out to book club participants, starting the last week of the previous month.
If you’re in a book club, or interested in starting your own, consider taking advantage of our Book Club kits, where we have multiple copies of the same book as well as discussion questions. If you’re interested in knowing what we offer, view this pdf of our Book Club Catalogue
