McNaugthon Collection



Everyone knows that the Pescosolido Library purchases books, but did you know that we rent books as well? While our purchased titles support the Academy curriculum, the research topics our students choose and our faculty assignments, we also want to meet the need for popular and leisure reading. To that end we subscribe to, or rent a rotating group of book titles that keep our collection very current. The head librarian, Ms. Chase, chooses titles from the 500 or so offered, that she deems will interest our students and faculty. This collection is called the McNaughton book collection. We also have the option of purchasing these titles after we rent them. I highly recommend that you look at this popular collection. It is located across from the New Book collection on the right as you enter the library. New titles arrive each month. This month Mrs. Healey has made a display using the popular McNaughton books.
