The Fine Print
To check out a Book Group To-Go kit, groups must first register with the Library as a West Bloomfield community book group. A member of the group (who has a West Bloomfield library card) can then check out a Book Group To-Go kit for up to six weeks. Kits may be reserved up to one year in advance. A card holder is limited to checking out two kits at the same time; kits cannot be renewed.
