NSL Book Club       North Shelby Library Book Club
Library Main > Adult Services We are a casual group that likes to get together to talk about books in addition to our discussion about the book of the month.  The books we choose to read are varied in subject matter and emotional depth.  We try to choose books that will incite discussion.  If this sounds like the group for you grab our book of the month and join us. 2008 Calendar of Books MEET: Every 3rd Thursday 10:30-12 :00pm BOOK SELECTION: Books will be decided 6 months in advance. WHERE: Library Meeting Room (unless otherwise noted) RESPONSIBILITIES OF MEMBERS: To have read the book (or at least attempted) and participate in the discussion.  Food items are also a nice treat.
