Book Kit Reservation Request

The Mesa Public Library has a special collection of titles for use by book discussion groups. Titles are available in Mystery, Classic, General Fiction, and Nonfiction genres, and kits include a binder with summary, author information, discussion questions, criticism and reviews and other information. An annotated list of titles is available at the Ask Here/Information Desk and may be copied for $.20 per page (approximately eleven pages). The list (without annotations) can also be found on the library catalog by entering “Book Group Kits” or “Adult fiction reading club series” as a Series Search. If you would like to check out book group kits, please complete the form below and follow these procedures:

  • Requests must be made at least one week and no more than twelve months in advance.
  • The person checking out the kit is responsible for all lost, damaged and overdue charges.
  • The person making the request will be notified if the kit is available and the request is approved. Because a number of book discussion groups use this collection, please don’t count on the availability of the kit until a staff member has contacted you.
  • Kits normally check out for 6 weeks; please include “Dates Needed” below.
  • Kits may be picked up at the MN Library Checkout or transferred to Red Mountain or Dobson Ranch Branches. Transfers may take up to a week.
