Here at the library, we read through hundreds of reviews to choose books, audiobooks, DVDs, and other items to purchase. Given the vast amount of titles published every month, it’s a tough job to select only a portion and also have enough variety for different reading and watching preferences.
But I’m curious…as a library user, what do you do when you can’t find a title in our catalog? Do you purchase it? Forget about it? Or put in a request, which we will either purchase or get from another library? This last option is probably the one that benefits us the most because it helps determine what you, our users, would like to see in your library.
So let us know what you think we’re missing, whether it’s a particular title, author, new format, or anything else.

I’ll look forward to your suggestions!

In the recent issue of Yankee Magazine there is an interesting looking book called “River Talk” by CB Anderson. It is a collection of fictional short stories on people from Northern Maine. It is getting great reviews. It would be nice to see if the library could get it.
