New Books (and more) added to the Gardner-Harvey Library in May!

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 May 2021! We added 149 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: 

  • Punch me up to the gods / Brian Broome
  • Central America's forgotten history : revolution, violence, and the roots of migration / Aviva Chomsky
  • Jackpot : how the super-rich really live--and how their wealth harms us all / Michael Mechanic
  • Create amazing : turning your employees into owners for explosive growth / Greg Graves
  • Your turn : how to be an adult / Julie Lythcott-Haims
  • Better, not bitter : living on purpose in the pursuit of racial justice / Yusef Salaam
  • Skim, dive, surface : teaching digital reading / Jenae Cohn
  • We are Bellingcat : global crime, online sleuths, and the bold future of news / Eliot Higgins
  • The plot / Jean Hanff Korelitz
  • Beloved beasts : fighting for life in an age of extinction / Michelle Nijhuis

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!
