Book Collection

The chess club has a book collection, consisting of books you can borrow, books you can request to look at during meetups (reference), and sometimes even books being given away. They are also separated by sections designating

To borrower or arrange for a reference viewing, contact Mark Jenkins by email mark@parit.ca or catch him at a monthly meetup.

The monthly meetups are also the preferred location for loans and viewing though alternative arrangements can be made with a good reason.

Also contact Mark if you’d like to make some of your home chess library available for borrowing or reference, you wouldn’t need to put your contact info or name on this site, people could reach out to Mark and he’d make the arrangements.

Reference section

These titles can not be borrowed. You can only arrange to view them at monthly meetups or alternatively at other times if there’s a good reason.
