Booktroverts is a genre-based book club where every month brings a new adventure! One month, you might be solving mysteries in a cozy town, and the next, you’ll be battling dragons in a fantasy realm. We explore everything from thrillers to sci-fi, historical fiction to literary gems, all while having fun and sharing our love for books. No formalities—just lively chats and the joy of getting lost in new worlds together. Ready for the ride? Grab a book and let’s go!
How does it work?
Booktroverts assigns a new genre or theme every month. You choose any book you want within that theme to read. Then, on the last Saturday of the month, everyone gets together to chat about the books they picked, sharing thoughts on the story, characters, and how the book fits the theme. It's a fun way to explore different genres while still having the freedom to pick what you want to read.
Are you interested in Book Club?
Wonderful! We are excited to have you join us. Fill out a quick form and library staff will send you the list of genres/themes for each month, plus a list of book suggestions to get you started.

Each Baby Club meeting will end with an informal playtime. During this time families are encouraged to socialize and bond with other babies
Sensory Play Program
Children will be able to explore sensory bins and hands-on activities. Children learn through play and interaction with their environment. Sensory play is a wonderful way to encourage this.

Sensory bins will be filled with small items like water beads. 24-25 Dates are TBD.
