Andrew Heiskell Library's Book Discussion Group

Do you enjoy reading good books? Do you wish you had someone to discuss them with? If so, why not join the Andrew  Heiskell Library's Adult Book Discussion Group? The group meets to discuss thought-provoking books every other  month  on Saturday mornings at 10:00 a.m. in the library's first floor meeting room.   All of the books we read are available as a digital talking book. Many are also available in large print and/or braille.

 To participate, please call the library at (212) 206-5400, or email us at talkingbooks@nypl.org to register. Registration is  required. Attendance is limited to 20 people, so call well in advance to sign up and tell us which format of the book you'd  like.   Happy reading!
