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


We are adding many new items to the collection each month, and making sure that you can see them on display! Watch for our recent DVD display, as well as our ongoing New Books shelves (as shown above). See our new materials list of items we added to the collection in February! We added 155 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: 

  • I think you're wrong (but I'm listening) : a guide to grace-filled political conversations / Sarah Stewart Holland and Beth Silvers
  • It was all a dream : a new generation confronts the broken promise to Black America / Reniqua Allen
  • The goodness paradox : the strange relationship between virtue and violence in human evolution / Richard Wrangham
  • Digital minimalism : choosing a focused life in a noisy world / Cal Newport
  • Divergent paths to college : race, class, and inequality in high schools / Megan M. Holland
  • Lost children archive / by Valeria Luiselli
  • The hundred-page machine learning book / Andriy Burkov
  • Midnight in Chernobyl : the untold story of the world's greatest nuclear disaster / Adam Higginbotham
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.

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!
