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

 


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 the New Media Display for some of the titles, or skim down our new materials list of items we added to the collection in December! 

We added 148 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: 
  • Madam C.J. Walker : the making of an American icon / Erica L. Ball
  • A short history of queer women / Kirsty Loehr
  • Mortal doubt : transnational gangs and social order in Guatemala City / Anthony W. Fontes
  • Pests : how humans create animal villains / Bethany Brookshire
  • Cybersecurity for small networks : a no-nonsense guide for the reasonably paranoid / by Seth Enoka
  • You made a fool of death with your beauty : a novel / Akwaeke Emezi
  • Sisters in the fire : the first African American women firefighters / Portia Rawles
  • Disability pride : dispatches from a post-ADA world / Ben Mattlin
  • The wages of whiteness : race and the making of the American working class / David R. Roediger
  • White torture : interviews with Iranian women prisoners / Narges Mohammadi   foreword by Shirin Ebadi   translated by Amir Rezanezhad"
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. 

If you know some titles we should add, we have acquisitions funds available.  We look forward to your suggestions of items to add to the collection.  

Happy Holidays to all from the GHL Library Staff and our book tree!
