Image of a flyer promoting Claverack and Philmont Libraries Battle of the Books Info and Planning Session. Friday March 27th 5:00 PM 518-851-7120 or email: info@claveracklibrary.org Parents and MS/HS students are invited to join us for an informational meeting about the 2026 Battle of the Books.
Students who will have completed 5th - 11th grade
are eligible to join our team.
Battle of the Books is a library system-wide book trivia competition. Coaches from participating libraries choose a selection of books that every team will read.  Throughout the summer, teams meet to discuss the books, go through practice questions, and even set up scrimmages with other local teams. At the end of the summer, the venue will be set up with buzzer systems, scoreboards, and gracious volunteers. The Semi-Regional Battle pits the teams -- Jeopardy Style -- against one another to test their knowledge of the books.
