Following is a short list of discussion group guidelines that I feel are
appropriate for our book clubs.
BOOK CLUB GUIDELINES:
1. First and foremost, respect what others have to say. We are
not all going to have the same views, but that does not mean that one
perspective is less valuable than another.
2. Don’t be afraid to voice your opinion. This can help others discover aspects
of the book that they may have missed themselves. New insights can ignite new
discussion.
3. It is okay to disagree with others. Without differing opinions, little is
left to discuss.
4. Sometimes the topics we discuss may be controversial. Always keep in mind
that the purpose of the book club is not to offend the ideas of others.
5. During discussion, keep on topic. Use page numbers, links to sources, etc. to
accompany your input to avoid confusion.
6. Digression is okay, but remember that we are here to discuss the book at
hand. Everyone will benefit more from a focused talk. If the conversation gets
too far off topic, the facilitator will bring it back.
7. Be mindful of the allotted time and the number of people. Please show the
same respect to other members that they have shown you.
8. Lastly, enjoy yourself. These rules are established as guidelines, but we are
doing this book club to have fun, learn, and appreciate the Constitution and the
ability to discuss our ideas with like-minded people.
Keep reading. And we’ll see you at the club!
