Spring 2026 OLLI Digital Catalog – under construction 

OLLI BOOK CLUB: IN PERSON (H348)

H – Literature

Good books are meant for sharing. Join our collaborative monthly book group to share ideas about agreed-upon books (fiction and nonfiction) in a relaxed atmosphere. Members propose and select books and take turns leading the discussion. At our first meeting on Feb. 3 we’ll discuss Silver Sparrow by Tayari Jones (led by the instructors) and also select the group’s remaining books along with volunteers to lead future discussions. For discussion volunteers, please come to our first meeting with two books to propose and vote on. Planned book club sessions: 2/3, 3/10, 4/7, 5/5.

This offering meets for a total of 4 session(s).
