Our school's fiction club and graphic novel club already have staff
participation, and we also have a club just for earning PD.  A few of us
started a just-for-fun staff-only book club that meets off campus at a
different restaurant each month.  Attendance at the meetings varies from
5-12, but usually 15-20 read along.  They often stop by to chat about the
book with me if they miss a meeting.  If a month looks like it's going to
be really busy for everyone, we skip to the next month.
