The library runs several groups for Adults that meet up regularly on a variety of topics.
Merrill Film Society
Any film buffs and movie enthusiasts out there? The Merrill Film Society might be just for you! They meet at the library, on Zoom, and occasionally other locations, to watch and discuss great films and the industry. Any and all are free to join in!
See our upcoming film screenings and discussions.
Contact Mike (mcarnes@yarmouthlibrary.org) for additional information.
The Readers’ Circle
Maybe you’re looking for a more traditional book club? The Readers’ Circle is our long running regular monthly book group for adults. We meet eight months out of the year at 5:30 pm the last Thursday of the month* at the library. We read books on nearly any topic, but mostly stick to works of Fiction. Each four-book “Semester” is loosely grouped into a theme to connect the selected titles. Check the events page for current title selections and meeting dates. Any and all newcomers are welcome!

MML Writers’ Group
Once a month we have a small group of like-minded individuals that meet to discuss and encourage each other’s writing projects. Future opportunities are planned for more formal writing workshops and retreats. The group is capped at 10 people to foster an intimate atmosphere where everyone has opportunities to discuss and share their own writing. Registration is required.
Contact Courtney (ckleftis@yarmouthlibrary.org) for availability and further information.
Constant Readers’ Club
Do you like Stephen King? Are you curious about the work of the Master of the Macabre but need an excuse to give him a try? Good news! We’re starting a new book group here at Merrill, the Constant Readers’ Club, and our first year will be devoted to sampling King’s writing across a variety of subjects. All are welcome, but be advised: some of these selections are not for the faint of heart.
Contact Mike at mcarnes@yarmouthlibrary.org with questions about this group.
Nature Journaling
Nature Journaling is a self directed group that works from weekly prompts that are sent out through the Merrill Memorial Library social media accounts and the weekly email blast. There are special Nature Journaling events in person for inspiration. Past events include, Nature Journaling with Watercolor.
