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

  

A round table displaying staff picks from the library.


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 to help guide you to some titles, choose from our staff picks (shown above), or skim down our new materials list of items we added to the collection in November!  

We added 122 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: 

  • Afraid : understanding the purpose of fear and harnessing the power of anxiety / Arash Javanbakht
  • Unruly : the ridiculous history of England's kings and queens / David Mitchell
  • Jewish space lasers : the Rothschilds and 200 years of conspiracy theories / Mike Rothschild
  • Our history is the future : Standing Rock versus the Dakota Access Pipeline, and the long tradition of indigenous resistance / Nick Estes
  • Reconstructing DEI : a practitioner's workbook / Lily Zheng
  • Refugee students : what every teacher needs to know / Jeffra Flaitz
  • The Darcy myth : Jane Austen, literary heartthrobs, and the monsters they taught us to love / Rachel Feder
  • Kallocain : a novel from the 21st century / Karin Boye   translated and with an introduction by David McDuff
  • Critical data literacies : rethinking data and everyday life / Luci Pangrazio and Neil Selwyn
  • Easy Mongolian cookbook : enjoy authentic Mongolian cooking with 50 delicious Mongolian recipes / by BookSumo Press
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!
