I was checking over the NY Times Best Sellers lists and comparing it to the Pember Library holdings. For the top 35 hardcover fiction, 29 are available at our library with 22 books in regular print, 7 in large text and 7 on audio book. Eight of the titles are available through our downloadable audio book service, SALON.
Several of the books are available in more than one format. Of the top 16, only one is not available at the Pember in any of these formats.
We have 13 of the best selling non-fiction books with 7 in regular print and 3 in large text. Two are available as audio books and 11 can be downloaded through SALON.
The lists with the Pember’s holdings highlighted is near the “new and popular” section if you want to look it over.
