Kiltimagh Library Book Club

What to Expect

Kiltimagh Library’s book club meets monthly to discuss a chosen title, giving local readers a regular excuse to compare notes on plot and character over tea in a relaxed, unhurried setting. It sits alongside the Mayo County Library network’s other branch clubs at Ballina, Castlebar, Ballyhaunis and Belmullet, each running its own monthly meeting for its own group of regulars. The September date is the first since the summer break, making it a natural point for new members to join.

As one of the smaller branch clubs, Kiltimagh’s meetings tend to stay especially informal, with members happy to chat generally about reading alongside discussing the chosen book itself. It is a good option for anyone in the Kiltimagh area looking for a modest, no-commitment way to get out one evening a month and meet other readers.

Good to Know

The club usually meets on the third Wednesday of the month at 7:00pm in Kiltimagh Library, breaking over July and August. The next meeting falls on Wednesday 16 September 2026, though the library notes the exact date can occasionally shift, so it is worth a quick call to confirm before travelling. Attendance is free, no booking is required, and all levels of reader are welcome, including anyone attending for the first time, whether or not they have finished the current book. Staff at the library can confirm the current book selection and hold a copy for members who want to read ahead.

Getting There

Kiltimagh Library is in the town centre, within easy walking distance of the main street and local parking, making it a simple stop for anyone already in the village for the evening. Kiltimagh’s central position in east Mayo also makes it a manageable evening trip for readers from neighbouring townlands who want a regular reason to get out.
