Join us for our new Mechanics’ Hall Book Club, meeting every third Tuesday of the month at 6:30. This book discussion group will feature selections across genres, with a particular focus on diverse voices, contemporary issues, and creativity.

For February we will be discussing Naomi Alderman’s prize-winning novel, “The Power.” 

Newcomers and drop-ins welcome; membership is encouraged. Email us at library@mainemechanics.org to receive the Zoom link.
