The synchronous book discussion schedule
First off, everyone in the club is free and encouraged to form synchronous discussion groups on your own. If you do host one and you're up for joiners, be sure to let folks in the LTF Collaborative know in case they'd like to join.
With that said, here are the sessions I'll be hosting:
