Book Club Sets

Whether your book club meets in person or online, Bega Valley Shire Library’s new Book Club Sets make it effortless for you to source multiple copies of the same title and to borrow them all in one easy box!

Each set includes 6 to 10 copies of the same book as well as printed discussion notes and links to related websites. The sets are free to borrow for six weeks with library membership.

You can view and reserve the kits via the library catalogue. We aim to expand our Book Club Sets with a range of genres according to demand and we’d love to hear from local book clubs and reading groups interested in using this service.  You can view the current titles in the book club sets via the link below:
