<P>Is your book club feeling stale or uninspired? Has attendance dropped, or are you struggling to keep your patrons engaged? What you need is a reboot. This resource published in cooperation with ALA’s Public Programs Office profiles dozens of successful book clubs across the country. Its diverse cross-section of ideas will inspire you to rethink your reading groups and try out new ways to better meet your library’s and community’s needs. Drawn from responses collected through social media, electronic mailing lists, e-newsletters, websites, as well as the authors’ own research, this book outlines the main reasons that traditional book clubs can grow stagnant over time and offers concrete advice on how to change things up; shares such real-world initiatives as a <Q>walk and talk</Q> book club, book clubs held in non-library spaces like ferries and bars, a discussion group for presidential history buffs, programming for people with developmental disabilities, a partnership with a health clinic network, and many others; includes programs from a wide range of library types (public, school, academic) and sizes; features short, easily scannable chapters that are convenient for browsing; and provides a handy list of resources for additional information. You’ll find the keys to creating a book club your community will love among the abundance of ideas offered in this book.</P>
