***Please note that our digital shelves are more sparsely populated than usual. Unfortunately, the book supply chain for libraries has been disrupted by the closure announcement of long-time book distributor Baker & Taylor. Although we had switched to another vendor, the entire library distribution landscape is now experiencing the repercussions of Baker & Taylor’s exit. Our new vendor anticipates that many of these challenges will be ironed out by January. In the meantime, we appreciate your patience and understanding as you wait for any eagerly anticipated titles.***
Romance is now shelved with Fiction. See above!
