The Books in Sunday's Paper

We already have two of the four titles on the book page of the August 14th New Mexican.
       The two we have are Shockwave : Countdown to Hiroshima, by Stephen Walker, which is still in processing; and Long Time Gone, by J. A. Jance, which already has a lot people waiting for it. You can place holds on both of these.
       The two we don't have (yet) are Racing the Enemy: Stalin, Truman, and the Surrender of Japan by Tsuyoshi Hasegawa; and Rider of the Pale Horse: A Memoir of Los Alamos and Beyond, by McAllister H. Hull & Amy Bianco. These are both titles we should have, and we will try to order them.
       (By the way, that title about modern slavery which we mentioned ordering some while ago, Disposable People: New Slavery in the Global Economy, by Kevin Bales, has come in, and is being processed.)(We get as antsy as our patrons to get the books people are waiting for from the publishers...)
       About placing holds: if you have multiple holds you want to place, first go to "View Your Record" and log in. Then click on "Search the Catalog". Starting this way, you will not keep having to re-enter your information for each book. It's in there until you hit the LOG OUT button. (Do please remember to log out.)
       PS. J. A. Jance will be signing at Garcia Street Books this afternoon at 4 PM.
