The Redleaf Book Club was set up by the Woollahra Library Friends members in early 2003 and meets on the evening of the first Monday of the month at Double Bay Central Library from 6pm to 8pm.
All new members are welcome. If you are interested in joining the Redleaf Book Club or would like further information leave a message at the Library for the Club secretary, Grace Bendall, and she will contact you.
