They're back


Guess what the science fiction books have traveled from a far far place (the lower level) back to the stacks on the first floor. The vault project is winding down so they could be moved back to where they belong. May the force be with you

What's up! Books, DVDS, CDS and Video Games

Hi
please excuse my lack of blogging entries -- we've been Sooooo busy adding tons of new materials to the adult collection, check out all the new books, videos, compact discs, and video games. We have something for everyone, from the newest New York Times Bestsellers (they may not be on the shelf) to lesser known new novels. All new books are located right next to the reference desk, so check them out who knows you may discover a new author or learn a new hobby or skill. We also have tons of new music compact discs, everything from classical to jazz to my very own favorite (the Boss) did anyone see him in concert? it was awesome.
We've also added new titles to our ever growing collection of video games. We have games for XBOX 360, Playstation 3 ; and Wii. We tend to buy games that are appropriate for all ages so check those out they are downstairs at the end of the DVDs.
Speaking of DVDs nothing on TV this weekend, we have all new movies, including Marley & Me, Quantum of Solace. We've also started to buy Blu-ray discs, they can't be played on regular DVD players but I hear they are super cool.
So don't forget to check out all new materials, and I promise to blog more often, at least I'll try to.
