Welcome to BookShare!

Welcome to Washington County Free Library's BookShare Blog!

WCFL's BookShare was established in 2004 as a community discussion forum to enable avid readers to share their favorite fiction and nonfiction books regardless of subject or genre.

BookShare is also responsible for publishing a bi-monthly newsletter supplement for WCFL's Newsletter, Main Street, the monthly Notable New Hardcover Fiction and Nonfiction Lists (which also appears in the Hagerstown (MD) Herald-Mail Newspapers), and the annual Beach Reading list.

BookShare is also host to popular monthly book discussion groups at the following branch libraries: Boonsboro, Clear Spring, Sharpsburg, and Williamsport.

Consider the BookShare blog as your 24/7 meeting place to talk about books old or new. Each week, I will post comments about new nonfiction books I've been reading, lists of new books you might have not heard about, and sneak preview lists of forthcoming books scheduled for publication and available to borrow from Washington County Free Library.
