New Books

Monday, May 3rd, 2010

Did you hear about a book on Oprah? GMA? NPR?  See something in the weekend paper that you were interested in reading?  How do you get our hands on that newest best seller you’re dying to read?

Well the easiest way, of course, is to just call and ask if we have it.  We’ll let you  know if it’s on the shelf, or if we can put a hold on it.  We can “put you on the list” even if the book is just on order.

If you like doing it yourself, go straight to the online catalog, check for the title, and with your barcode and a couple of clicks, you’ll be on the list.  Take one more step, enter your email address, and you’ll get email notifying you when and where to pick up the book.

Browsers – come on in and just troll through the new book shelves.  That’s where you’ll find the as-yet-undiscovered gems.  You’ll have a chance to talk to staff members for suggestions, new titles to watch for and what’s going on in the library.  Plus, you can tell us what you want us to watch for.

 

Here’s a title you may have missed – The Postmistress by Sarah Blake.  Ms. Blake will be speaking at the DCLS Author Luncheon in October.
