Book Club Resource

Are you a public or school library in Colorado that organizes and holds book club meetings at your facility for your patrons? Do you have patrons who organize their own book club activities through the library? Are you in need of some additional book options for any of these activities?

The Colorado State Library wants to help! This website is your connection to lots of book sets for your borrowing needs. We have more than 800 titles to choose from and all have at least eight copies with many having ten or more copies available.  For a downloadable list of current titles, click here.

Let us assist you with your book club events!
