A book circle to connect as a community in a meaningful way and create a safe space to expand and deepen our understanding of the world around us. Check out a copy of the book at the Info Desk.

Join us each month in reading the chosen book and coming together in meaningful conversation that expands understanding, self-reflection, learning, and openness.

Together, we will share perspectives in safe and respectful ways inspired by books that provide expansive experiences that support the transformation of our ways of knowing, being, and living in community.

In May, we will be reading, Caste : the Origins of our Discontents. "...The hierarchy of caste is not about feelings or morality. It is about power--which groups have it and which do not." In this brilliant book, Isabel Wilkerson gives us a masterful portrait of an unseen phenomenon in America as she explores, through an immersive, deeply researched narrative and stories about real people, how America today and throughout its history has been shaped by a hidden caste system, a rigid hierarchy of human rankings..." -Provided by publisher 

Come join us for an insightful and inspiring conversation!

Check out a copy of the book at the Information Desk. Bring the book with you to the book club.

About the branch

The Library was designed by the firm of Bull, Stockwell, and Allen. The architectural style is that of the 19th century railroad yard in Tiburon. 
 
The site is part of the landfill of the 1890s done to create the railroad yard. Windows frame views of the marsh lands and Old St. Hilary's Open Space preserve. 
 
The expanded library was designed by Brown Reynolds Watford Architecture and added approximately 9,000 square feet, bringing the total size of the library to about 19,500 square feet.
