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 to help guide you to titles,  or skim down our new materials list of items we added to the collection in December!  

We added 50 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: 

  • The kingdom, the power, and the glory : American evangelicals in an age of extremism / Tim Alberta
  • Be your best you : the ultimate research-based guide to outstanding leadership / Mary Kovach, Ph.D.
  • A history of fake things on the Internet / Walter J. Scheirer
  • Ordinary people : portraits from LGBTQ Armenia, Georgia, and Russia / Ksenia Kuleshova
  • Centers for teaching and learning : the new landscape in higher education / Mary C. Wright
  • The synthetic university : how higher education can benefit from shared solutions and save itself / James L. Shulman
  • Outrageous : a history of showbiz and the culture wars / Kliph Nesteroff
  • The intuitionist / Colson Whitehead
  • Yesterday : a new history of nostalgia / Tobias Becker
  • Blackouts : a novel / Justin Torres
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!
