Library Staff (and Work Experience Student) with their new acquisitions, smiling despite their 'shopping feet'.
Shoppers at Modbury were recently sent flying by a joyous contingent of library staff as they gleefully wrestled an entire shopping trolley full of new books across North East Road, from the Plaza to the Civic Centre. Such antics have now become tradition, as Selection staff celebrate the end-of-financial-year spend in an effort to squeeze value from every last dollar allocated to them. (Please note that all funding for library books comes from the State Government). The books included Reader Suggestions and new Best-Sellers. We anticipate that these new books will be hitting the shelves very soon.
Off the Shelf 
I am looking forward to searching for these new items using the Highlights of Winter 2009 option on the catalogue. Love the use of the bright recyclable bags!
Hope you have purchased enough so that the Reserve queues aren’t too long
Ok, I give in – I simply can’t find ‘Highlights of winter 2009’ on the library website or catalogue. Can you point me in the right direction?
Hello “A Reader”. The Highights tag is a work in progress. However, at the moment, if you go to the Library Catalogue, to Basic Search and to “Any Words from Series” and enter the words “Highlight” and “Winter” you will get a list of all of the items that have been marked as highlights for Winter 2009. We hope to add further functionality to this in future months.
Oh wow, that’s just great, thanks so much! What a great feature.
