Book Club Bags

You can check out book bags with multiple (usually 10-12) copies of the same title.  At our library, they're located near the new fiction and magazines on the main level.  To find these in our online catalog, choose "Book club bag" as the item "Type" in an Advanced Search.

Currently, we don't have any YA titles available as book club bags.  Would you use book club bags with YA titles?  If so, what are some titles you'd like to see in bags?
