Did you know himmelfarb has a bookshelf on the 1st floor that is reserved for you?
We call it the “take a book, leave a book” bookshelf, and it works exactly the way it sounds. The take a book, leave a book shelf is in the nook area next to the Humanities and Health Collection. If you’re familiar with little free libraries, this is the same concept. We invite you to take any of the books on the shelf for personal reading. There is no need to check them out at the circulation desk.
Do you have books at home that are collecting dust, or do you have a few titles that you would like to share with your classmates? Feel free to leave them on the “take a book, leave a book” shelf. Keep in mind that leaving a book is discarding the book - these titles are not added to our collection, and we do not keep track of them. That being said, isn’t it fun to try something new? Who knows, you might find your next favorite book on our take a book, leave a book bookshelf!
