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

 

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 February 2021! We added 177 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: 

  • This is how they tell me the world ends : the cyberweapons arms race / Nicole Perlroth
  • College belonging : how first-year and first-generation students navigate campus life / Lisa M. Nunn
  • The uberfication of the university / Gary Hall
  • A bright ray of darkness / Ethan Hawke
  • The prophets : a novel / Robert Jones, Jr
  • The light ages : the surprising story of medieval science / Seb Falk
  • Deep learning / John D. Kelleher
  • Extraterrestrial : the first sign of intelligent life beyond Earth / Avi Loeb
  • The Internet in everything : freedom and security in a world with no off switch / Laura DeNardis
  • Consent : a memoir / Vanessa Springora
  • A place for everything : the curious history of alphabetical order / Judith Flanders

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!
