School funds, donations, or crowd funding sites are ways to secure books.
A few days before meeting, she will meet with the facilitators by reviewing the agenda and having the students decide what areas to discuss.
Trivia questions give a quick way for students to be involved, including prizes. This creates a fun atmosphere and allows for students to read deeper.

I love this idea and the short book club sessions are great for young people! A few questions: If you only order 30-35 books, how do you make enough available for parents, teachers, etc.? Do you have a sign out for books, honor system, etc?
