Next Reads


Unsure what to read?
The library subscribes to an e newsletter which you might find helpful. It's called Next Reads. Once a month a newsletter is sent out to your email, it has a brief description of the books which you might find interesting. There are 22 different Next read newsletters ranging from mystery, historical fiction to travel and adventure. I personally subscribe to the mystery & historical fiction newsletters. I can tell you that each month I find at least one title that I had never heard of before, what's great you can link to the MLN catalog from the newsletter and reserve the book. If Lincoln doesn't own the item you can request it from another library! I also like that they include older titles as well as new items, this is a great way to catch up on items you may have missed.
So check out Next Reads, there is a link from our web page www.lincolnpl.org to sign up.
