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

See our new materials list of items we added to the collection in November! We added 229 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:
  • Understanding everyday incivility : why are they so rude? / Shelley D. Lane
  • Teaching history with science fiction films / A. Bowdoin Van Riper
  • Citizens but not Americans : race and belonging among Latino millennials / Nilda Flores-González
  • Disasters in field research : preparing for and coping with unexpected events / Gillian H. Ice, Darna L. Dufour, and Nancy J. Stevens
  • The crisis of the middle class constitution : why economic inequality threatens our Republic / Ganesh Sitaraman
  • Veiled superheroes : Islam, feminism, and popular culture / Sophia Rose Arjana
  • Nigerians in space : a novel / by Deji Bryce Olukotun
  • To Siri with love : a mother, her autistic son, and the kindness of machines / Judith Newman
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!
