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


We add many new items to the collection each month, and we hope you'll check some out! Take a look at our New Books shelves or skim down our new materials list of items we added to the collection in November! We added 103 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: 

  • Hurts so good : the science and culture of pain on purpose / Leigh Cowart
  • Born in Blackness : Africa, Africans, and the making of the modern world, 1471 to the Second World War / Howard W. French
  • The 1619 Project : a new origin story / edited by Nikole Hannah-Jones, Caitlin Roper, Ilena Silverman, and Jake Silverstein
  • How to be animal : a new history of what it means to be human / Melanie Challenger
  • Hail Mary : the rise and fall of the National Women's Football League / Britni de la Cretaz and Lyndsey D'Arcangelo
  • The nutmeg's curse : parables for a planet in crisis / Amitav Ghosh
  • The evidence liberal arts needs : lives of consequence, inquiry, and accomplishment / Richard A. Detweiler
  • Everything and less : the novel in the age of Amazon / Mark McGurl
  • H of H playbook / Anne Carson
  • Navigating autism : 9 mindsets for helping kids on the spectrum / Temple Grandin, Debra Moore
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 John Burke (burkejj@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!
