Books as Bridges - Monkey Beach Book Club

March 15, 2017 (6:00 pm - 5:00 pm)

Location: Quiet Reading Room, Vaughan Memorial Library


The Books As Bridges initiative encourages the Acadia community to share their love of books by reading the assigned novel or graphic novels and participating in programming surrounding the books. This is an opportunity for the entire campus to build bridges between books and people and to collectively embark upon the exploration of ideas through literature.

Simply turn up to our book-clubs, author reading, or film screenings

Keep up with events or supplementary readings at our Books as Bridges Library Guide and the Books as Bridges Facebook Page

All book-club meetings are from 6 – 7 pm in the Quiet Reading Room at the Vaughan Memorial Library.
