Greetings from Plumb Library. Welcome to BookRemarks, our new monthly feature focusing on all things library related.
Let’s talk about book clubs. Your Library offers a number of opportunities for you to come out and be social in book-related ways. Book clubs are a great way to meet new people, learn about new authors and read books that you may not normally gravitate toward. It’s an opportunity to share and learn with other readers in a casual setting, and there are almost always snacks. We hope that you’ll consider joining us at one of our meetings.
We have a long-standing adult book club, started in 2004, recently renamed “Books & Babble” that meets the last Thursday of every month at 6:30 pm. In this group we read fiction, nonfiction and biographies under an umbrella theme for the year. The 2023 theme is “Food, Art, & Adventure,” and the book for May is “The Kitchen Front” by Jennifer Ryan. After a short hiatus, the Council on Aging Book Club is back. They meet the 3rd Tuesday of the month at 1 pm at the COA and are currently reading “This Time Tomorrow” by Emma Straub. New members are always welcome at both of these groups and books, along with discussion questions, can be picked up at the Library. For our slightly younger readers, there are 4 levels of BookBuds reading groups ranging from 6 years to high school. They meet the 1st Friday or Saturday of the month and registration is required. Check out our Events Calendar for more information and to sign up at www.plumblibrary.com.
As always, your Library Staff, Kristen, Jen, Lisa and Bridget are here to help you find what you need. Feel free to call 508-763-8600 or email us info@plumblibrary.com with any questions. Better yet, come by and say hello.
