New at the Library
Check this page monthly to see the items that have newly arrived at the library. The scrolling items are a selection of what is new. These might not be visible on the library's shelves if you visit in person because they might be checked out. Don't worry if there are many holds on a particular item. Placing a hold on our library's items allows you to skip the line! The item will be sent back here when it has been returned. The links at the bottom of the page show all new items in the selected category.
