Love From Our Learners

We love our customers and participants. And they love us! Here’s what some of them have to say about what we do.

“The Rutgers University Alumni Book Club is starting its third year with PBC Guru and we are very pleased with the return on investment. Our 1500+ registrants are able to network with each other and be exposed to new books and ideas, and we’re able to keep readers connected to their alma mater on their terms.”
Mary Clare Venuto
Acting Directory of Alumni Enagements and Annual Giving, Rutgers University
“We are able to use the book club to showcase and reference LSE’s world leading research as we connect literary themes to academic disciplines or feature LSE-led literature as a book club pick.”
Ceri Jones
Head of Alumni Engagement, The London School of Economics and Political Science
