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

We are adding many new items to the collection each month, and making sure that you can see them on display! Take a look at our New Books shelves or skim down our new materials list of items we added to the collection in May! We added 157 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: 

  • Inspired : slaying giants, walking on water, and loving the Bible again / Rachel Held Evans
  • Women's war : fighting and surviving the American Civil War / Stephanie McCurry
  • Collaborating with the enemy : how to work with people you don't agree with or like or trust / Adam Kahane
  • Firefighting : the financial crisis and its lessons / Ben S. Bernanke, Timothy F. Geithner, and Henry M. Paulson, Jr
  • Mother is a verb : an unconventional history / Sarah Knott
  • Unaccompanied migrant children : social, legal, and ethical perspectives / edited by Hille Haker and Molly Greening
  • Dare to sketch : a guide to drawing and sketching on the go / Felix Scheinberger
  • Drawdown : the most comprehensive plan ever proposed to reverse global warming / edited by Paul Hawken
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 look out 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.  There is still time (and money) available to add materials in this fiscal year.

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