We offer several online book clubs per year and club is a series of four, 60-minute interactive discussions. Through these peer-facilitated, co-learning sessions, OPC Members and Associates will explore and discuss key concepts in the chosen book and how those concepts might inform practice as a school leader. At the last session of most book clubs, the author will be available to answer questions or support the discussion.
Participants will need to purchase the books in advance of the first session. Whenever possible, we try to obtain a discounted book price. If a discounted price is available, it will be detailed below. The rate applies to all OPC Members and Associate Members, whether you participate in the book club or not.
Book Clubs are open to all OPC Members. We encourage broad and diverse input and participation in attending, recommending books, and facilitating sessions. Participation in the book clubs is at no cost to Members and Associates. Any non-Members will pay a small fee to take part.
If you are interested in suggesting a book for a future book club, and/or volunteering to facilitate the sessions and/or writing a book review for the Register Magazine, complete our form. Potential facilitators need only have enthusiasm for reading the book and willingness to facilitate some conversation.
