GRRL provides Book Club Kits. Each book club kit contains multiple copies of a book (often including an audiobook version and a large print version) as well as a study guide for use by book clubs. The kits check out just like books, but for six (6) weeks instead of three (3).
Audiobooks provide listening enjoyment for all ages and interests. Many popular adult and young adult books, fiction and non-fiction, are published as audiobooks, and GRRL has a large collection on CD and cassette.
