Our Online Catalog has been enhanced!
When the book you want is not available, how can you find something similar?
If you’ve read one book in a series, how do you know which one comes next?
If you’ve read all the books by one author, who else should you try?
Now the answers to all these questions—and more—are at your fingertips. There is nothing extra to do. Just search for a book as you always have. When you click on the title, the next page provides a short summary and indicates what libraries own the book and whether it is checked in or out. After a few seconds information labeled “Content from NoveList” will pop up on the screen. If the book is part of a series, the other titles will appear. A list of similar titles will direct you to other books and authors that you might enjoy. Just click any title listed to learn more about the book and to see if it is on the shelf. “Related NoveListContent” near the bottom of the page offers links to related materials, such as author biographies, reading group guides, other recommended books and articles, and similar authors. If you click on the name of one of the “Similar Authors,” you will be prompted to enter your library card number.
We hope you will enjoy these added features of NoveList Select software.
