The Times Book Club was opened in September 1905 with the aim of increasing the circulation of the newspaper. The club operated as a free circulating library for the sole use of annual subscribers to the newspaper and, along with library facilities, members were entitled to copies of the paper, its supplements and discounted book sales. Various branches of the Book Club were opened across the country, the first at Pophams of Plymouth in 1908. In 1910 the club introduced subscription charges, before opening to the general public in 1911.
