Borrow Nonfiction titles for holiday break!!!

The holiday break might be the perfect time to borrow one of the popular nonfiction books that the Media Library displays on racks ( Soul of a Doctor, How Doctors Think, The Great Influenza, Better, Complications, just to name a few)...these are interesting titles that you might not have time to read when classes are being held. These can be borrowed at any time, and can be used for longer periods of time. So before you leave after your last exam, come in and check a book out for that long plane or car ride, or some quiet time at home at last!

Holiday Schedule

The Media Library in Piscataway will close at 5 PM on Friday, December 19. We will be CLOSED from Saturday, Dec. 20 through Sunday, Jan. 4. We will reopen at 9 AM on Monday, Jan. 5, 2009.
If you need to borrow any books before you leave for the break, please visit the library on Friday Dec. 19 before 5 PM. If you are returning books to the book drop, please remember to push them to the back and do not leave them on the inner shelf. If the drop is full, bring them in to the desk on Monday morning, Jan. 5.
Have a safe and enjoyable holiday!
