Foothill Forum Book Club

The Foothill Forum Book Club meets at the Salt Lake City Public Library Anderson-Foothill Branch on Monday, October 26, from 6:30 PM to 7:30 PM. It's one of the City Library's book clubs, and it gathers in the branch's meeting room at 1135 South 2100 East in Salt Lake City.

The group focuses on contemporary socio-political issues, working through nonfiction books and discussing them with thought-provoking questions and civil discourse. It's not a one-off; the club meets on select Mondays and the last Tuesday of each month, so this is part of a regular cycle rather than a standalone event. If you're into nonfiction and want to talk through the bigger things happening in the world with other people in the city, this is exactly that kind of group.

There's a specific way they handle the reading: copies of the book are available to pick up at the Anderson-Foothill branch a month before the meeting, while supplies last. If you want to be part of the conversation, you'll want to swing by and grab your copy early. It's a good reminder that the library provides the books as well as the space for the discussion.

And if you've ever thought about starting your own group, the City Library has you covered there, too. They offer book club kits that come with nine paperback copies, an audiobook, and discussion guides, so you don't have to do all the legwork yourself. The Foothill Forum meeting is Monday, October 26, from 6:30 PM to 7:30 PM in the meeting room at the Anderson-Foothill branch.
