Mission

Mission
As gathering places aimed at fostering community engagement and open dialogue at Georgetown, the Library and the Midnight Mug would like to create a book club open to the entire Georgetown community. The book club will provide an opportunity for people from across campus to come together to discuss themes relevant to our community and explore diverse
viewpoints.

Goals and Objectives
Build community: Bring book lovers together from across campus to discuss books, socialize,
network, and reduce the sense of isolation exacerbated by the pandemic. The club is open to undergraduates, graduate students, faculty, and staff from all areas of the University.
Encourage diverse perspectives and ideas: Using novels and popular non-fiction as a way to spark conversation and discuss issues can help promote open dialogue, understand other viewpoints, stimulate thought-provoking conversations, and break down barriers across academic departments, roles, and generations.
Promote reading for pleasure, not just for school and work: Reading for pleasure can help increase empathy and creativity, reduce anxiety and stress, and promote emotional well-being.
