OPS Book Club

Friday is the first meeting of the OPS Book Club. So what is a book club, what should we do and why would anyone want to come?

Traditionally book club members all read the same book and get together to discuss the book. This is an excellent way to understand everyone's perspective on the book and the author's writing style. However, at OPS we have 30 minutes for our club meeting. This is not enough time to allow all the members to thoroughly discuss a book. So we'll have to do something different.

This time we will try having all our members read a different book and post their comments and opinions about the book on our wikipage. Here's the link: http://OPSBookClub@wikispaces.com

All of our members can access the wiki and add or edit anything on the page. If one member posts the name of the book she read and a brief review about it then other members can comment, about the review, ask questions, insert images or add their own review if they have read the book. And, not only can book club members access the wiki page; everyone can.

We'll also blog about our books and our club, create a book club wordle and eat chocolate chip cookies. So, OPS book club...it's not what you think.
See you there.

I posted a comment on Connor's blog that he should consider being a "regular" at the "open mike" show in the library. Just thought you would want to know! Hope the water was FINE this weekend!
