Book in for a chat

Libraries across Brimbank are hosting monthly book clubs, and are always looking for more readers to join the groups and the discussions.

At Deer Park Library, meetings take place on the first Monday of each month, from 2pm to 3pm, offering a relaxed environment to discuss the latest book selections with fellow readers.

Keilor Library provides two opportunities monthly, on the first Thursday, from 2pm to 3pm, and the second Saturday, from 3pm to 4pm, catering to both weekday and weekend preferences.

Sunshine Library gathers on the fourth Monday, from 6pm to 7pm, ideal for people working throughout the day.

Lastly, Sydenham Library hosts their book club on the last Tuesday of each month, from 2.30pm to 3.30pm, providing another option for weekday participation.

Whether you’re a long-time book club enthusiast or looking to join for the first time, these sessions offer a welcoming space to explore literature and connect with fellow community members who share your passion for reading.

With bookings not essential, you can join anytime and enjoy discussions with other members of the community.

If you’re not a reader, there are a number of other social activities run at Brimbank’s libraries across the week, including crafts and general chats.
