We had a wonderful request from a patron to list the new titles from previous newsletters on our website. We thought it was a great idea-so here it is! This is the complete list from 2010(we did not have lists in April, July, or August’s newsletters). We will begin posting a new blog entry for each month’s newest library books beginning in March
Feel Free to comment here about the books or what you would like to see added to the collection.
