November 2011
Welcome to the second edition of "From Your Libraries..." It's one of the ways to let you know about new products and services the library is adding as well as remind you about those you may have missed.
I encourage you to send any book or media requests you have to help us build the library's Geography collection. I'm also interested in your thoughts on ebooks in the collection -- see the poll in the "Talk to us..." section at the bottom. Our goal is to provide a collection that meets your needs for teaching and research.
Enjoy!
