Love to read and interested in joining a book club? Our book discussion group
may be for you! These informal, peer-led discussions are free and open
to the public. You may discuss the current selection or just listen to the
comments of other readers. We meet monthly from September through May
in the Killingly Public Library Community Room (exceptions are noted below).
At each meeting, the following month's book selection will be available for
checkout (a valid CT library card is required.) If you have questions about
obtaining a book, contact Karen Wall at the Library (860-779-5383). If you
are interested in joining the group, or for more information, contact
Linda Picciarelli (860-774-8930) or Pat van der Swaagh (860-774-6504).
