New books added to the Gardner-Harvey Library in August!

See our new materials list of items we added to the collection in August! We added 125 books, e-books, DVDs, and other items during that time, thanks to your selections and suggestions. The list can be sorted by call number, area of our collection, or by title.

Here are eight titles from the list, to give you an idea of what we've been buying:
  • Earth at the crossroads : understanding the ecology of a changing planet / [videorecording] Eric G. Strauss
  • Listen, we need to talk : how to change attitudes about LGBT rights / Brian F. Harrison and Melissa R. Michelson
  • We demand : the university and student protests / Roderick A. Ferguson
  • The only pirate at the party / Lindsey Stirling and Brooke S. Passey
  • The Wendy project / written and created by Melissa Jane Osborne art, colors, and letters by Veronica Fish
  • Breakaway learners : strategies for post-secondary success with at-risk students / Karen Gross
  • Science wars : what scientists know and how they know it / {videorecording] taught by Steven L. Goldman
  • Mask of the sun : the science, history, and forgotten lore of eclipses / John Dvorak
This tag will show you all of the prior lists of new materials, in reverse chronological order. We are eager to hear from you about individual items you would like us to buy, or types of items we should be on the lookout for, or general subject areas we should build up in the collection.

This month we're adding some new materials along with replacements for items that have gone missing from the collection (and those that patrons have chosen to replace). We're looking forward to what you'll recommend next!

If you have a suggestion of something to order, please use our "Tell GHL to Buy It" form, email Amy Carmichael (carmicae@miamioh.edu), or drop by the library with your request. And pass your general suggestions or comments about the collection to us in those same ways.

Thanks again for keeping our collection vibrant and your information needs met!
