How is it already the end of December? It seems like only yesterday that I was recommending what books to read for the month of October. For this end of the year article, I will be providing a compilation, provided by library staff, of library materials that they have read, played, watched, or utilized, and are happy that the community has access to such valuable library materials.
Shannon – the Korean drama Vincenzo and the novel The Midnight Shift by Cheon Seon-Ran
Diane – the graphic novels Borders by Thomas King and White Bird by R. J. Palacio
Dawn – the novels Push by Sapphire and The Bluest Eye by Toni Morrison
Ciara – the video games Discounty, Borderlands 4, Silent Hill F
Vanessa – the databases Libby and Kanopy
Daniel – the international films Breadwinner, Memories of Murder, and Y Tu Mamá También
Celina – the database Ebook Central by ProQuest. It provides the user with information on topics the library may not have and is a great resource tool for college students.
Ruth – the paperback collection and the Ancestory.com database
And Kristina is grateful for the entire library collection because it offers books that resonate and reflect widely, so that every person in our community can feel the singular comfort of companionship of a story that feels like home.
By providing the community access to a diverse collection of library materials, we are promoting understanding and acceptance.
Wishing everyone a happy and healthy holiday season, and as George Harrison said,
Give me love
Give me love
Give me peace on Earth…
