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

See our new materials list of items we added to the collection in January! We added 131 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:
  • Pain : a sociological introduction / Elaine Denny
  • Introduction to public history : interpreting the past, engaging audiences / Cherstin M. Lyon, Elizabeth M. Nix, Rebecca K. Shrum
  • Modern India : a very short introduction / Craig Jeffrey
  • Troublemakers : Silicon Valley's coming of age / Leslie Berlin
  • Bit by bit : social research in the digital age / Matthew J. Salganik
  • Ghosts of the tsunami : death and life in Japan's disaster zone / Richard Lloyd Parry
  • Best practices in planning strategically for online educational programs / Elliot King, Neil Alperstein
  • Reinventing the wheel : milk, microbes, and the fight for real cheese / Bronwen Percival, Francis Percival
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!
