Book Club Resources
The Library offers a wide variety of services and resources to meet the needs of book clubs.
Book Club Card
The Library offers a card to support the many active book clubs in our community. This card allows book club organizers to request multiple copies of the same title (up to three titles) with automatic renewals and no late fees. Books may be requested via this online request form and can be picked up as a group or individually at the requested pick-up location in three weeks.
Visit your local branch library or call 513-369-6900 to find out how to apply for a book club card.
