What is the Berkeley Book Club?

Every year, students across Berkeley Unified gather in their school library to discuss and read a list of recently published books curated by our library team. After several months of reading and discussion, students have the opportunity to vote and select the winners in February.

All of the books featured in the Berkeley Book Club were selected by your very own BUSD librarians, and were specifically chosen to reflect the diversity of our community, and to spark joy and a love of reading.

Stay tuned for more information about author visits... Questions in the meantime? Ask your school librarian!
