Although it's now halfway through September, it's never too late to discuss new books that we've recently added to our collection here at Newman Library! Each month, the library posts all of the new books that we added the previous month, and on this blog, I highlight a few of these new books that I think readers of this blog might be particularly interested in. All of the books listed below are available for check out--unless someone gets to the library before you do!
As always, remember that you can view the
entire August 2011 new books list here, and even
request that I purchase something for our collection! Now is a particularly good time for requesting books, since I've just started spending my 2011-12 book budget.
