New books (and more) added to the Gardner-Harvey Library in October!


If you've been thinking about reading a book, we have hundreds of new ones (plus a lot of older ones) ready to go!

Take a look at our New Books shelves or skim down our new materials list of items we added to the collection during October 2020! We added 127 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.  There is definitely something here for everyone!

Here are eight titles from the list, to give you an idea of what we've been buying: 

  • Live not by lies : a manual for Christian dissidents / Rod Dreher
  • What were we thinking : a brief intellectual history of the Trump era / Carlos Lozada
  • Body snatching in Ohio : a century of digging up corpses in the Buckeye State / by Curt Dalton
  • Is rape a crime? : a memoir, an investigation, and a manifesto / Michelle Bowdler
  • Solutions and other problems / Allie Brosh
  • The searcher / Tana French
  • Owls of the eastern ice : a quest to find and save the world's largest owl / Jonathan C. Slaght
  • To make their own way in the world : the enduring legacy of the Zealy daguerreotypes / edited by Ilisa Barbash, Molly Rogers, Deborah Willis

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.

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!
