Adult Book Club & Resources

Jake Epp Library Book Club

To register for either adult book club click here.

If you’d like to join an existing book club, Jake Epp Library hosts an in-house book club meeting on the third Wednesday of each month from 7-8:30 pm. Copies of the book are available at the circulation desk. The book for each month is posted on the event calendar.

We also have a playtime book club for parents with kids 5 & under, where you can bring your kids and let them play with one another while you discuss books. It takes place on the last Friday of the month. For Jun-Aug the time is 10-11 a.m., Sep-May will be 9:30-10:30.
