Book Discussion Groups
Some book discussion groups have been moved to online as the library continues to follow health and government guidelines about group size and spatial distancing. Below is a list of book discussions scheduled with CCPL.
Share your passion for reading with a CCPL book discussion group! New attendees are always welcome. Discover new reads and new friends at a library near you.
