New & Upcoming Books
Being part of a large Library consortium has its advantages because we have access to so much more than our individual collection!
When it comes to recently released items, however, you must place a hold on the title in order to be one of the first to get these materials.  
Although a new item may technically belong to us, we are required to send it to fill any hold requests within the library system.  
Included below are some of the upcoming new releases click on the title or book cover to place a hold.
