The New Shelf is Overflowing!

A few weeks ago, the library received a very generous donation from the Coralville/North Corridor Rotary Club. The donation allowed us to buy over 170 new books!! We used the money to purchase new materials in the junior fiction and early chapter book sections. The primary focus was on updating series that we already owned and buying new series for each area. Here are some examples of the series we purchased or updated: Geronimo Stilton by Geronimo Stilton Allie Finkle's Rules For Girls by Meg Cabot The Time Warp Trio by Jon Scieszka Funny Families by Jackie French Regarding the Fountain by Kate and Sarah Klise Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III by Cressida Cowell Andrew Lost by J.C. Greenburg Sammy Keyes by Wendelin Van Draanen Suddenly Supernatural by Elizabeth Cody Kimmel The Baseball Card Adventures by Dan Gutman Stink by Megan McDonald And many more! We also bought one more copy of each of the Iowa Children's Choice Award nominees for the 2009-2010 school year. So we now have two copies of each title. Most of these book can be found on the junior fiction new shelves, but not everything would fit, so some things are in the beginning chapter book blue dot section or the junior fiction section.
