New resources at the USFP Library

Here are the latest arrivals for the month of December. As always, circulating books are located in the New Books shelves in the back of the room. Reference and Faculty Publications are shelved immediately in their proper stacks.

To note, we received several great things this past month. We received education textbooks as donations for example. As well, several of our new books were suggestions from our new faculty members (we welcome your recommendations). Last, but not least, we received four books authored by USFP faculty members Drs. Ralph Fehr, Cecil Greek, Maria Cecilia do Nascimento Nunes and Cynthia Patterson. All are available for perusing in the USF Polytechnic Faculty Publications Special Collection.
