Monthly Book Club

The RMHS Library Book Club meets in the library during Day 4 Flex Block. Thanks to the generous support of the Friends of the Reading Public Library and our partnership with Whitelam Books, participating students receive their own copy of every book—and get to keep them! Each spring, club members vote on and select the reading list for the upcoming school year. To find out what the club is currently reading or to join, stop by the library circulation desk.
