Book Groups
Glasgow Libraries support a range of book groups across the city e.g. Poetry, Classics, Crime - there really is something for everyone. Get together in the comfort of your local library with like-minded book lovers to discuss everything book related or borrow a set of our books and hold your own sessions wherever is best for you.
Find your nearest book group
Find out where your nearest Book Group session is by looking at the Glasgow Life What's On pages.
For further information please contact GL.BookGroups@glasgowlife.org.uk or your local library for further details on joining or starting a book group in your area.
Glasgow Libraries participates in the Hurricane Book Club which is funded and run by Pan Macmillan and takes place online and in bookshops and libraries across Scotland with special events at Glasgow, Falkirk and Shetland Libraries. For more information see our Hurricane Book Club page.
