Book Club

Readers Welcome!!!

The Honey Harbour Public Library book club, formed in 2006, meets the first Tuesday of every month from 11 a.m. to noon in the Margie Birch Room of the Library. Titles vary, but most frequently are works of fiction. The books are provided each month through the Innisfil Public Library Book Pool. Some recent titles include The Kite Runner, For One More Day and The Girls. Currently we have seven members.

We review, discuss and interact with individual responses to the book selection read by all of the members. Lively discussion opens up to the other person’s viewpoints and opinions and often leads to broader and more diverse dialogue beyond perhaps the scope of the book being reviewed.

This is a wonderful opportunity to share the love of reading and to foster new friendships with people having common interests.

History

The Honey Harbour Public Library was started as a Lion’s Club project in 1974 and in the spring of 1975 a trailer was purchased from the Federal Government. The trailer was moved to the Honey Harbour Public School yard and was officially opened on August 7, 1975. The Township of Georgian Bay Public Library Board became active as part of the Algonquin Regional Library System.

In October 1980 the Honey Harbour Public Library rented a building (the old liquor store) as a larger space was needed and also this building was closer to the center of town.

As times changed and progressed, the Township of Georgian Bay Public Library was no longer connected to the Algonquin Regional Library System but became linked with the Ontario Public Library System.

The library grew and the Board again realised that more space was needed. In 1992, Mayor Dot Donnelly announced that the Township of Georgian Bay had purchased the North Shore property and that the ground floor would be turned into a library.

On July 18, 1992, the new library opened and it is in the same location today.
