Library Programs and Events

There are regular programs and special programs developed especially for our adult users. Regular programs include a monthly book club - the OPL Bookies, Chess League, and Professional Resume help. We may have special programs like the VITA Tax Assistance or on topics such as finances, job searching, and art workshops. Check the calendar for up-to-date information on available programming.

OPL Bookies - Adult Book Club

Connect with fellow readers at the Oakland Park Library’s Adult Book Club. Each meeting features an open, friendly discussion of a selected book in a relaxed environment. Books are available to participants while supplies last, making it easy to join in. Meetings are held at Beans & Dough, offering a comfortable space to gather, read, and connect with others in the community.
