We will also talk about what each other is reading, and in the process, maybe learn about a new book to try! Yadkin Public Library Third Thursdays from 5-6:30 p.m.
These Book Clubs are available online
Story Times are available for a variety of ages and are available at most of our Regional branches. Please see the locations and times below or call your nearest branch to learn more!
