New!!!
The BHPL "Creative Genius" Book Group
6th Grade and up

This group will meet monthly and is for 6th graders and up. Each meeting will be divided into two parts.

First, we will discuss an assigned books. Please feel free to make book suggestions!

The second part of the group will focus on individual "creative projects." Participants are free to explore a topic of their interest and report back to the group. (Please have your topic pre-approved before beginning work. While the possibilities are wide open, the topic must be appropriate for a library group.) Some topic ideas are silly...such as how many licks it takes to get to a center of a Tootsie Roll pop! Others include researching stories from Weird New Jersey magazine. All topics are within bounds as long as you are able to present your findings clearly to the group! You can speak briefly, create a presentation or web page, write a short article or create artwork. The possibilities are endless.
Have fun with this!

How do I sign up?

Schedules are available for each group. We recommend you sign up for your group, however last minute drop-ins are always welcome. You may sign up in person, by phone, or by using the
online registration form.

Many of the books are available at the Boonton Holmes Library. If a book is unavailable,
ask the Circulation desk to order a copy from another library.
It usually takes a few days
for books to arrive so plan accordingly.

Have fun reading your book and show up on the designated day!
All groups will be held at the library unless noted otherwise.
