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

 


If you've been thinking about reading a book, we have many 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 December 2020 and January 2021! We added 112 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 ten titles from the list, to give you an idea of what we've been buying: 

  • Black futures / edited by Kimberly Drew + Jenna Wortham
  • The Company : the rise and fall of the Hudson's Bay empire / Stephen R. Bown
  • Vision or mirage : Saudi Arabia at the crossroads / David H. Rundell
  • Virtual cities : an atlas & exploration of video game cities / Konstantinos Dimopoulos
  • Recasting the vote : how women of color transformed the suffrage movement / Cathleen D. Cahill
  • The Chicana/o/x dream : hope, resistance, and educational success / Gilberto Q. Conchas, Nancy Acevedo
  • At night all blood is black / David Diop
  • Fathoms : the world in the whale / Rebecca Giggs
  • Stranger faces / Namwali Serpell
  • Maker literacies for academic libraries : integration into curriculum / edited by Katie Musick Peery

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!
