Sandi Banks, head librarian, usually "leads" the discussion by providing background information, reviews of the book, and by posing questions. In her absence the group manages to function on its own. The group makes an effort to discuss a variety of books, and anyone can suggest a title. You can see a list of the books read by the group by clicking on the link at the left.

What is a book group anyway?
"In book groups, like-minded souls gather; what they have in common seems to be that a) they can read, b) they like to read, and c) they like to talk about what they have read. It's the liking to talk about it that divides the non-book group readers from the book group ones." Margaret Atwood, in the foreword to "The Book Group Book"
It's a way to "...get more out of your reading experience." Rachel Jacobsohn in "The Reading Group Handbook"
"A well-run book group is the model of democracy---minimum administration, the majority rules, policies evolve as needed, and the group exists solely for the benefit of all the members." Jacobsohn
