We’re excited to announce the titles for our 2026-2027 Book Club discussions, sponsored by the Friends of the Libraries, the Wright State University Alumni Association, and the Wright State University Retirees Association. This year we will hold two book discussions in person in Room 228 of the Dunbar Library: September 17, 2026 and March 18, 2027. The two remaining discussions will take place online via WebEx, from 5:30 p.m. – 6: 30 p.m. on November 17, 2026 and January 21, 2027. We’re excited to share that author Thao Thai will join our November 17 discussion.

Registration will be available and is encouraged for all book club discussions, but is not required. More information, including links to registration, links to the online events, and the books in the WSU Libraries will be posted soon. Check out our event page for more information.
