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

 

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 July! We added 151 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: 

  • Better to have gone : love, death, and the quest for utopia in Auroville / Akash Kapur
  • The Appalachian Trail : a biography / Philip D'Anieri
  • Creating a culture of innovation : design an optimal environment to create and execute new ideas / Alexandra Deschamps-Sonsino
  • An ugly truth : inside Facebook's battle for domination / Sheera Frenkel and Cecilia Kang
  • Female monarchs and merchant queens in Africa / Nwando Achebe
  • The natural mother of the child : a memoir of nonbinary parenthood / Krys Malcolm Belc
  • The Holly : five bullets, one gun, and the struggle to save an American neighborhood / Julian Rubinstein
  • Razorblade tears / S. A. Cosby
  • Cultish : the language of fanaticism / Amanda Montell
  • Intimacies / Katie Kitamura
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.

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!
