Midsummer is a good time to look back at a few\u00a0of the past academic year\u2019s acquisitions. These titles reflect a wide variety\u00a0of subjects, but this past year\u2019s funding also enabled us to add many more titles than I\u2019ve listed here; we are not likely to be as fortunate this coming year.<\/p>\n
You can find links to the ebooks by looking the\u00a0titles\u00a0up in the Library Catalog or in QuickSearch. For reference books, our policy is to purchase ebooks before print when possible, so if a title on the shelf looks a bit old, check to see if there might be a more recent edition or treatment in an electronic format. \u00a0I hope you find something useful for your research, your studies, your personal life, or all three\u00a0\u2014 and if not, then please ask at the Reference Desk and we’ll do our best to help you find what you need.<\/p>\n
