Platteville, Wisconsin | Platteville Public Library Silent Book Club

Do you enjoy reading books but don't want to join one of our other book clubs because you don't want the assigned reading commitment? Do you long for the days when your elementary school teacher gave you assigned quiet reading time?

At the Platteville Public Library Silent Book Club, all readers are welcome. It's BYOB- bring your own book! E-readers, audiobooks (with headphones), textbooks, graphic novels and traditional books are all welcome at our events.

We'll meet at the library and you can help yourself to some refreshments and get nice and comfy for the first ten minutes.

We read silently for one hour.

We socialize for the last twenty minutes.

We go home knowing we ate, met great people, and finally set aside time to read our to be read book(s).

Ghent, Belgium | Faculty Library of Arts & Philosophy of Ghent University

Part of the Faculty Library of Arts & Philosophy of Ghent University is transformed into a Silent Book Club every last Monday of the month.
We provide a cozy place where you can read in silence for an hour (or a bit longer), with a drink within reach. All technology is omitted so participants can read their favorite books in silence. Bring your own book or borrow one from our quirky selection or our entire collection. Those who wish can chat afterwards.

Een deel van de Faculteitsbibliotheek Letteren & Wijsbegeerte van Universiteit Gent wordt elke laatste maandag van de maand omgetoverd tot een Silent Book Club.
We bieden een gezellige plek en gezellige plek waar je in stilte een uur (of een beetje langer) kan lezen, met een drankje binnen handbereik. Alle technologie blijft achterwege zodat de deelnemers in stilte hun favoriete boeken kunnen lezen. Breng je eigen boek mee of leen er eentje uit onze eigenzinnige selectie of de hele collectie. Wie wil, kan achteraf napraten.
