ACPL is changing how we run book clubs in this time of social distancing. Contact the library or your book club leader for more information.
Copies of the book club books for checkout are generally available at the circulation desk. Contact the library for more information or to check on the availability of titles.
Wyoming Winter Book Club
The Last Monday every month: October 2020 to May 2021
We all say we’ll read the classics, but sometimes they’re just too daunting and sometimes the motivation wanes. What if I told you that all you need is a single season, and you could read that book you’ve always said you would?
Join us for our Wyoming Winter Book Club, where we tackle the classics, starting with Leo Tolstoy’s War and Peace.

Silent Book Club with the Wyoming Institute for Humanities Research
Every Tuesday, 5:30-6:30pm
Via zoom: https://zoom.us/j/527599786
Join the Wyoming Institute for Humanities Research and the Albany County Public Library for a Silent Book Club!
It’s pretty simple–show up on Zoom with whatever book you want, and then for one hour, we read. For the first few minutes, we share on screen or via chat whatever book we brought. Then all the microphones go off, and we read together. At the end of the hour, if people wish, they can read aloud to the group a few interesting sentences from their books.
