The Reading Retreat - RO

A Silent Reading Club - Ages 16+

This club is a relaxed, judgment-free space for book lovers, introverts, and procrastinators to read together and connect.

Enjoy a relaxed, low-pressure reading experience in a shared space. Bring any book, e-reader, or audiobook and settle in for a quiet hour of reading, with time to socialize before and after. No assigned reading. No required discussion. Just time, space, and community, designed to promote library services, encourage reading, and connect you with our library and natural spaces around it.

Bring your own materials, or a library card, and our programmer will assist with our physical or digital collections.  

The Reading Retreat will meet once or twice a month, enjoying local parks and pavilions during the warmer months and moving indoors to cozy spaces during the colder months.

On May 30, we will meet on our beautiful back patio behind the library at Harnish Main. Chairs will be provided, but you can bring a folding chair or picnic blanket if you wish.  

AAPLD embraces inclusivity in its programs and services. To request accommodations, please email [info@aapld.org] or call (847) 458-6060 x143 at least 7 days in advance.
