Welcome to the Book Club Ready-to-Go Program of the Fullerton Public Library
A Book Club Ready-to-Go kit is a bag that contains everything your book group needs to enjoy reading and discussing your next book. Each bag contains 10 copies of the title, discussion questions, author information, reviews, tips on how to conduct a book group and anything else that may enrich your discussion. A sign out sheet is also included so that you may keep track of which friends have your books.
