How to join

Renewing your individual membership?

You can pay your membership online. To pay online you will need to obtain your group's unique URL payment site from your group secretary.

Please contact your book group secretary or Book Groups Tasmania staff on 6233 8681 or by email if you are experiencing difficulties paying online. If you prefer, you can fill in an individual membership form and send it to us.

Selecting your books online

Once your group secretary has registered your book group you will receive information about payments and a Book Groups registration number and password.  You can then select your books online using the library catalogue.

Not a member, but would like to join a group?

We keep a register of groups seeking new members and will try to match you with a group in your area. There may be a waiting period if there are no available groups in your area at the time of your enquiry.

If you would like to join a book group, fill in this form and send it to us and we will contact you.

Start your own group

All you need is:

  • between 5 and 12 members - there is flexibility to add new members throughout the year
  • somewhere to meet
  • a member who is happy to act as group secretary and will pick up the monthly box of books from a LINC Tasmania and distribute books to members at each meeting and return the books to us by the due date. The secretary is our main point of contact with the group and receives a membership discount.
