Kids and parents are invited to come join a fun and informal meetup that is geared to spark excitement about books and reading. There will be games and activities, and participants will be invited to share what they’ve been reading recently.

BOOK CLUBS In French and English

NEW THIS FALL: Essences citoyennes – The Living Ideas Book Club (In French)

Reading to understand better, discussing to act better. Essences citoyennes is a new book club focused on environmental issues — a space for ongoing civic learning. It features powerful readings on contemporary challenges, enriching discussions with invited experts, and an accessible approach that supports community engagement.

This project is created and led by Coralie Beaumont, a PhD candidate at Université de Sherbrooke. Her interdisciplinary research focuses on biodiversity governance from an information and communication perspective. A former science journalist and communicator, Coralie is passionate about bridging science and public dialogue.

Book copies: We plan to provide a few copies of the book as needed. If you would like to borrow one, you’ll be able to let us know in the sign-up form.

Goals: Deepen understanding, ask questions, foster dialogue, and build bridges between citizens, research, and public action.

Coming up in 2026:

Winter 2026: Un sacrifice tout naturel (graphic novel) – exploring land protection issues.
