 Insider Tips . . . From Kelsey   helpful tips Kelsey Butterfield
If you are putting a popular book on hold from our online catalog, remember large print versions may offer a much shorter waiting list. Plus, large print books are easier to read, especially in low-light conditions. The newly-merged online catalog will go live sometime on Thursday, December 10 - get ready to place your holds.
