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

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 August! We added 81 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: 

  • Under red skies : three generations of life, loss, and hope in China / Karoline Kan
  • Trick mirror : reflections on self-delusion / Jia Tolentino
  • How to be an antiracist / Ibram X. Kendi
  • Working daughter : a guide to caring for your aging parents while making a living / Liz O'Donnell
  • This land is our land : an immigrant's manifesto / Suketu Mehta
  • Teachin' it! : breakout moves that break down barriers for community college students / Felicia Darling
  • The college dropout scandal / David Kirp
  • Strange Harvests : the hidden histories of seven natural objects / Edward Posnett
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.

We're starting off the 2019-2020 academic year right with these additions. Thank you for all of your suggestions and requests!  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!
