We have two library-sponsored book clubs. They are treated like our other local clubs except that they meet in our multi-purpose room whereas the other clubs meet elsewhere.
Normally I will buy one set of books (6 or so) once a year for the book clubs who request them. However, if the book isn't one I think would appeal to a wider audience, I don't purchase it. Most of the time this works out well because more than one club will be interested in reading the same books. Carolyn T.

Do the members order their own? Do you order and they pay for them? Do you order multiple copies for the library and let them check them out? Any other tips on this subject would be gratefully received! Judy Judy Duer Library Director Temple (TX) Public Library [email protected] 100 W.
