The Dorothy Alling Memorial Library has a book group that generally meets on the 3rd Tuesday of the month at 12:30 called "The Brown Bag Book Group". Check our events page for other offerings such as Cooking Matters, New Perpectives and Bring Your Own Book.
At this time the book group is meeting online. We are all learning new ways to engage these days, and we don't want technology to be a barrier for anyone. If you would like to join us but need some assistance connecting via Zoom, we are here to help. Please email us at This email address is being protected from spambots.
