One reason is social interaction, it's a great way to spend time with friends and meet new people. A book club can inspire you to read more, or read books that you never would have read otherwise. Book clubs are a fun way to stimulate ourselves to think and discuss what is going on around us, or to escape into an alternate reality created by a talented author.

Wiki's
Would be good to get feedback from library patrons on books they have read - to encourage other patrons to read that book.
Would be a good place to put book lists of award winners and genre's, types of materials, i.e. new reference, audio books, DVD's.
Maybe.
