Book Clubs are a great way of sharing your love of reading with like-minded people in a fun and casual way.
There are many ways to get involved in book clubs….
Library Book Clubs
City of Parramatta Libraries internal book clubs meet monthly at different Library branches to discuss books, share ideas and have fun in a casual friendly environment. To enquire about joining one of our groups email bookclubs@cityofparramatta.nsw.gov.au let us know your name, phone number, preferred library and if you are interested in a daytime or evening group. You can expect a reply within seven (7) business days (probably much less).
