New Books in the Library

Did you know that the Library generally receives about 400 new books (as well as music CDs, music scores, DVDs, etc.!) every month?  Rather than just shelving these new acquisitions, the Library is now spotlighting them on the book truck on your right after you enter the building.  Check it out and see what’s new for the past week or so.  There is also a new book browsing area at the far end of the first floor.  These are also books of current interest and include many fiction titles.  Books generally are kept in the new book browsing area for several months.  So, come by and see what’s new!
