Next Chapter Book Club is a community-based book club for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

Participants (even those who cannot read) gather for one hour weekly to read aloud and discuss a book that is provided by the Library. Together, we will explore new worlds and meet interesting characters through fun and engaging stories, gaining real-world skills and making new friends along the way.

Registration is required for this program and space is limited. By registering for one session, you will automatically be registered for the entire series.
