I am trying to start another interest group at the Tipp City Public Library. A morning coffee group on every Friday at ten thirty am, to listen to the adult service staff present the new books that the library is just adding to their collection. Today we had a very interested group who enjoyed the donuts and the discussion of the reading interests. Patrons had a chance to look over the new books before they were sent off to other libraries in our consortium for patrons who have already put holds on the items. Now Tipp Library patrons can see the books before they go out. Patrons have a chance to post their name onto the book, I place the hold and then I check the books in. If a book belongs to the Tipp City Library, it will go to a Tipp City Library patron first. Here is the list of a few new presented books of non-fiction:
Better Angels of Our Natures: Why Violence Has Declined by Stephen Pinker, a study on the history of violence that purposes that we are not as violent as our predecessors.
Trust Me, I'm Dr. Ozzy: Advise From Rock's Ultimate Survivor by Ozzy Osbourne, a memoir with humor from the rock star who has a history of drug abuse and multiple near-death experiences.
A Thousand Lives: the Untold Story of Hope, Deception, and Survival by Julia Scheeres, gets a starred review . It is the story of the ill-fated Jonestown. Julia Scheeres is the author of the memoir, Jesus Land.
Viral Storm: The Dawn of a New Pandemic Age by microbiologist Nathan Wolfe. He has researched the global medical issues that ultimately have an effect on all of us.
