Libraries aren’t just about books. Sometimes a library can be a great place to meet like-minded people, foster new interests, and socialize a bit. We have many clubs that give Yorkville patrons great opportunities to have fun with new people.
Book Clubs
The Yorkville Library offers six book clubs for adults. Click the link above to check out our book clubs and what they’ve been reading.
Roaming Readers Walking Club
Threads & More
Do you crochet, knit, needlepoint, sew, or quilt? If so, get together with fellow “threaders” for a creativity blast! Come work on your unfinished projects, show off finished projects, and check out what other people are doing. “Threads & More” group is an informal friendly group that welcomes all interest and abilities. The group meets on the first Tuesday of each month. This program is for adults 18 and older.
Dungeons & Dragons Clubs
Join the YPL Dungeons & Dragons group every Thursday in the Adult Services department. We are a friendly group of players with a variety of experience levels – from dungeon masters who’ve played for years to brand new gamers trying things out for the first time.
The current campaign is full. If you are interested in joining the group, please contact Adult Services Director Mike Curtis to get on the waiting list for when a new spot or a new game open up.
