Meets the 2nd Tuesday of each month at 5:00 p.m.
At the Athens-Clarke County Library
The African American Authors Book Club is for anyone who is interested and who loves to read. The books are selected by members of the book club and are primarily books written by African American authors. Our objective is to broaden our knowledge of the many African American authors and their writings and just have fun reading.
For the safety of our patrons and with a continued effort to “flatten the curve," all Athens Regional Library System branches in Athens-Clarke, Franklin, Madison, Oconee and Oglethorpe counties will remain closed until such time that it is deemed safe to reopen to the public. Library staff remain on the job serving our communities virtually. Please feel free to contact us at http://athenslibrary.org/
Our libraries are adapting to meet your reading needs. 
We are expanding our digital eBook, e-Magazines, and e-audiobook collection by 80%, including many new eleases and in-demand titles. We invite you to visit our online library to log in to RBDigital and browse our collection! Don't forget... we also have a digital collection for younger readers through eRead Kids! eRead Kids, offered by Athens Regional Library System and Georgia Public Library Services, has nearly 15,000 ebooks and audiobooks for children from pre-k through fourth grade. Download books straight to your computer or mobile device. Don't have a library card? We've got you covered! Keep calm and read on!
The African-American Authors book club reads works that focus on writers of African descent, the history of African-American people or people of the African diaspora.
Please join us for our March meeting as we read Hunger: a memoir of (my) body by Roxanne Gay.
