Get 'em while they're holds!

You're a brilliant reader with fabulous tastes, so you know you want to read that new book everyone is talking about. Unfortunately, it's checked out already. Consider placing your name on the item's hold list. When your name comes up, we'll give you a call and save the item for you for at least three days. You can place holds in person, by phone (558-3500), or online (username is your library card number, password is your last name in lowercase).

Here are some popular items you might want to place on hold:

Sycamore Row by John Grisham
Returning to the Ford County law practice of Jake Brigance of Grisham's first novel, A Time to Kill, this novel follows another controversial court case. After a terminally ill rich man apparently commits suicide, a new, handwritten will comes to light, leaving his family scandalized and the community in turmoil. It's up to Jake to sort out the mess.

Takedown Twenty by Janet Evanovich
In Stephanie Plum's latest adventure, mob boss Salvatore “Uncle Sunny” Sunucchi is wanted for murder and Stephanie is set to take him down—if she can find him, that is: none of her usual sources are willing to snitch. In the meantime, Stephanie helps Ranger and her own Grandma Mazur investigate a murder at the senior center.

Killing Jesus by Bill O'Reilly and Martin Dugard
From the team that brought you Killing Lincoln and Killing Kennedy comes a riveting work of nonfiction about the pillar of Christianity. Killing Jesus lays out the details of the events leading up to Christ's death as we know them from historical accounts, written in a straight-forward style that keeps readers engaged and increases understanding of the political climate of the time.

In our DVD collection, get your name on the list for Star Trek: Into Darkness, The Croods, The Great Gatsby, After Earth, or Pacific Rim.

Of course, if you don't feel like waiting for holds, just browse our shelves. Hundreds of new releases and thousands of great older titles are available now.
