Library Book Club

Join us to learn about great books!

Inception and Overview

"A book should teach us to enjoy life or to endure it." - Samuel Johnson

 

Purpose

 

In February 2008, the University Library launched a book club for the Regent Community. The goal of the Book Club is to be a resource that brings readers together and encourages reading for enrichment and pleasure.

 

Our reading list consists primarily of classics of western literature and Christian spirituality. We also read important modern and non-western works that promote  a wide perspective and sensibility.

 

 

Selection Criteria

 

The main criteria for inclusion on the schedule are literary quality, readability, and projected interest by the Regent community.
