Walk around Wilmette with other community members while listening to your audiobook!
BYOB audiobook! This program is a take on the Silent Book Club concept where participants read in silence with other readers. For this program, participants will walk around Wilmette with fellow community members for roughly 30 minutes while listening to your own chosen audiobook.
Meet at the flagpole, we'll leave around 10:00 am, introduce ourselves, audiobooks turn on, and librarian Jillian McKeown will lead the group through Wilmette. We'll end back at the library to talk about the experience of walking and listening, and share out about our audiobooks.
Registration is required.
If you have any questions or comments, please contact librarian Jillian McKeown at: 847-256-6933 or email: jmckeown@wilmettelibrary.info.
The Silent Book Club as an organization set out to unite a global community of book lovers through the shared joy of reading together, and we're excited to host this special type of book club, hosted by the Wilmette Library.
