Peak Picks
Due to a major IT infrastructure project to upgrade and modernize the Library’s Integrated Library System (ILS), new physical item titles, including Peak Picks, will not be added to our collection until the project is complete in early October. We apologize for the inconvenience.
To learn more about the ILS project – which will improve the Library’s central platform for managing collections, checkouts, patron accounts, and other services – visit our blog.
Current Peak Picks
New titles are added to Peak Picks often, so check these lists to find out what titles are currently on the shelves. If the book you want is not available, you will probably find another great read at the Peak Picks display.
