So, you want to foster a culture of learning within your company using BetterBookClub and now you need to know where to begin. You’ve come to the right place!

In this guide, we’ll tell you how to create and set up your book club.

If you're new to BetterBookClub...
If you’ve never had an account with us, you’ll first need to sign up to create your book club.

Tip: Not sure if you already have a BetterBookClub account? Just click Find Your Book Club on the right side of the sign up page and you’ll be able to search with your email address!
​

If you're currently a member of existing book club(s)...
You can be a member of several book clubs using one email address! That means if you’re already a part of one or more book clubs, you can create a new one using the same login. Follow the instructions below to learn how:

Member of One Book Club:

Member of Multiple Book Clubs:

Note: When you create a new book club, you’re an Administrator by default. This means you can invite new members and manage member permissions. Visit Roles and Permissions to learn more.

Now that you’ve created a new book club, it’s time to get familiar with the application and how it works. Start by filling out your profile and updating your book club information!
​

Your Profile is where you can share and keep track of all the books you’ve read, want to read, and what you’re currently reading. This is also where you can edit your personal information and settings.

Completing your profile is one of the most important steps in setting up your new club—especially if you’re in charge of rolling out the program to your team. Set a great example for your team as they starting joining the book club and encourage engagement from the start!

Check out Edit Your Profile in our Help Center for step-by-step instructions. To hit the ground running, here’s what to do first:

Tip: Encourage your team to add the date they were hired in the Anniversary Date field. Each year on a teammate’s anniversary, your club's Champion(s) and Administrator(s) are sent an email with a list of all the books they’ve read thus far. It’s a great opportunity to celebrate your teammates' tenure by recognizing their reading accomplishments!

Keep track of all your reading by tagging books you’ve read, want to read, and what you’re currently reading all in one place on your profile!

You can start right from your profile by clicking the Search for a Book button and browsing through our Amazon-powered search tool.
