I can't find anything about this online, but according to an article in my co-op's newsletter, there's a Graphic Novel Club that meets regularly at the Merril Collection in the Lillian H. Smith branch of the Toronto Public Library: "The Graphic Novel Club is for patrons 14 years old and older (some books contain mature subject matter). The dates for this club are October 23 at 2 p.m. and November 20 at 2 p.m. For further information, call 416-393-7748." - Nadia
