| Our
Quest: To offer the opportunity to every person to Converse
about books in Cordial,
Literate and Intelligent discussions. To
strive to Create and
Support a community
of Readers in which
every person's opinion is Welcome
and Valued, and
through which we can get to know and enjoy
one another as we experience the Joy
of Learning and the
Exchange of Ideas through many different
reading opportunities and genres. |
| In
other words, let's pick a book that we all read, then get together and
talk about it! And, to accommodate today's busy lifestyles: You have a choice! The
Hiawatha Public Library
has a book club that meets in the evenings and two that meet during
the day. You pick the
one (or all!) that fit your schedule. |
