Not sure what to read next? You've come to the right place! Scroll through lists of books (plus a few DVDs) created by library staff to find something to suit your mood. Navigate through each row of reading lists by clicking the left "<" and right ">" arrows which appear on the cover images on either end. Click on a cover image to view the associated list in our catalog. We periodically add new titles as well as entirely new lists, so be sure to check back frequently. We also have reading lists for teens and reading lists for kids. 

Let us help you find your new favorite reads! We've created an online Readers Concierge Service to help you with your reading selections. Just complete a short survey to give us a sense of what you like to read and library staff will email you a personalized list of five to ten titles within three to five days. Click here to get started.

You can check out some other great tools for readers below, including the major bestseller lists, guides to books in a series, readers advisory databases, and reviews from our quarterly Brown Bag Booktalk.
