So
many books, so little time. For all those busy people, the South San
Francisco Public Library offers an Online Book Club that delivers books
electronically. Each day, Monday through Friday, the library emails
subscribers a portion of a book that takes about 5-minutes to read.
They're able to read two or three chapters from a book during the week.
If they like a book, they can check it out of the library. Each week
the library features new books.
With
11 book clubs to choose from, there's something for everyone. Patrons
can read Fiction, NonFiction, Romance, Business, Good News, Teen,
Mystery, They can also listen to Audio Books in their email and there's
even a PrePublication Club. You can start reading books in your email
before they're even published. Now you can discover great books, even
if you're too busy to visit the library.
Library
Director Valerie Sommer says, "This new service makes it easy for
people to get back into the habit of reading. It only takes 5-minutes a
day and it's fun."
You can sign up for the service at the library or by clicking on this link: SSF Online Bookclub.
You
can also forward the emails to your friends. It's a great way to stay
in touch with friends and relatives that live in other parts of the
country.
