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

See our new materials list of items we added to the collection in October! We added 299 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:
  • Odd girl out : the hidden culture of aggression in girls / Rachel Simmons
  • Sucking up : a brief consideration of sycophancy / Deborah Parker and Mark Parker
  • We were eight years in power : an American tragedy / Ta-Nehisi Coates
  • This blessed earth : a year in the life of an American family farm / Ted Genoways
  • Move fast and break things : how Facebook, Google, and Amazon cornered culture and undermined democracy / Jonathan Taplin
  • A flag worth dying for : the power and politics of national symbols / Tim Marshall
  • Moonshots in education : launching blended learning in the classroom / by Esther Wojcicki and Lance T. Izumi
  • The sun and her flowers / Rupi Kaur
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!
