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

 

=

We add many new items to the collection each month, and we hope you'll check some out.  We've come a long way in growing the collection since this photo was taken in in the early 1970s (and the trees have grown, too)! Take a look at our New Books shelves or skim down our new materials list of items we added to the collection in March! We had a bumper crop this month, adding 324 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: 
  • China and the Uyghurs : a concise introduction / Morris Rossabi
  • Can we unlearn racism? : what South Africa teaches us about Whiteness / Jacob R. Boersema
  • There is nothing for you here : finding opportunity in the twenty-first century / Fiona Hill
  • Who's Black and why? : a hidden chapter from the eighteenth-century invention of race / edited by Henry Louis Gates, Jr., and Andrew S. Curran
  • The devil never sleeps : learning to live in an age of disasters / Juliette Kayyem
  • Persuading with data : a guide to designing, delivering, and defending your data / Miro Kazakoff
  • Woman running in the mountains / Yūko Tsushima
  • Zoo ethics : the challenges of compassionate conservation / Jenny Gray
  • The invisible kingdom : reimagining chronic illness / Meghan O'Rourke
  • Russian 'hybrid warfare' and the annexation of Crimea : the modern application of Soviet political warfare / Kent DeBenedictis
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 Alan Kelley (kelleya@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!
