Phineas stars in all of our promotional materials and is the "face" of the Vise Library's <a href="https://www.facebook.com/CULibrary" target="_blank">Facebook</a> account.<br />
<br />
Phineas has two looks. First, is his "fun" look :<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-_4bl7NZSPPM/Wsz1azCpRMI/AAAAAAAAAbw/CStkjyp1-VgK_tA-LPbB2n4m3LzsCFeTwCLcBGAs/s1600/1962597_10201661446357346_996613179_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="160" data-original-width="160" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-_4bl7NZSPPM/Wsz1azCpRMI/AAAAAAAAAbw/CStkjyp1-VgK_tA-LPbB2n4m3LzsCFeTwCLcBGAs/s1600/1962597_10201661446357346_996613179_n.jpg" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Next is his "fancy" look, complete with our library's name :</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Both of these images were created by former CU professor, Margie Monde, in order to help the Vise Library with marketing efforts. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
In Phineas' spare time (when the library is closed), he enjoys reading (obviously) and rising from the ashes. He doesn't need much to entertain himself, which is good for the librarians since none of them know how to care for a phoenix. </div>

<b>If you could be any fictional character (from a TV show, movie, or book), who would you choose?</b></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium;">
At first when I read this my immediate answer was Wonder Woman, but I think I would rather meet her than be her. If I could be any fictional character I would want to be Veronica Mars (from the show <i>Veronica Mars</i>). She had some really close friends, she was super sassy, she always spoke up when she felt like she needed to, and she got to take her dog around with her while she solved mysteries.</div>

<b>What grown-up job did you want to have when you were a child?</b></div>
<b style="color: #484848; white-space: pre-wrap;"></b><br />
<div style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium;">
I always wanted to be a veterinarian. I grew up showing dogs and thought I always wanted to do something with animals. However, that quickly changed in college when I volunteered at an emergency vet clinic. That made me decide that I could love dogs and animals as pets from afar, and help them in some other way. So, now I just love on my rescue pugs, Scooter and Happy!</div>

It was <i>Love & Luck</i> by Jenna Evans Welch. It is about a girl that goes on a road trip with her brother (who she can't stand at the moment) and one of his friends. It was a really good YA story and helped me decompress after a big test I had this weekend. It comes out later this year and (shameless library plug) you should check out our copy from the library when it releases in July!!!</span></span><br />

I can't pick just one, but I will do my best to try! <i>Persuasion </i>by Jane Austen is a book that I will always be happy to reread (with <i>Pride and Prejudice </i>right behind it!). Anything by Mariana Zapata I can always reread (and have). <i>The Shoemaker's Wife</i> by Adriana Trigiani is one of my favorite books ever. <i>Harry Potter</i> (of course!). I also love, love, love anything by Beatriz Williams (she always hits me in the feels!). Books by Jennifer E. Smith are some of my favorites to reread too. I love to reread certain passages from certain books, too (but that would make this way too long!). </span></span><br />

I really enjoy the round-about way I get to help people. I really do a lot of things behind the scenes (budgeting, ordering, interlibrary loan, etc.) and I really love those aspects of my job. I love being able to get creative and find new ways to improve the services that we provide to the Cumberland University community. Those services (and their improvements) end up helping our students, faculty, and staff. A lot of times I get to bounce ideas around with my co-workers and that is always fun too!</div>

I usually go lay on the couch and watch 1 of 2 movies: Lord of the Rings : the Fellowship of the Ring or Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. These have been on my DVR for 3+ years and I have unfortunately (probably) started these movies thousands of times (no lie, I probably know the order of the commercials at this point). Since I have seen them so much, I don't feel like I need to stay up to follow along and it usually helps me fall asleep! I am usually back asleep by the time Frodo reaches Rivendale or by the time Harry is back at Hogwarts.</div>

<br />
Bettina is best known for being the nicest librarian on staff. She is also ridiculously good at remembering names and details from conversations. That gift serves her well in her role when providing assistance at the Information Desk and as the lead Instruction Librarian. She is also the Coordinator of the Stockton Archives.<br />
<br />
If you have a moment, be sure to thank Bettina for all of her hard work!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5275347135440506532.post-61680430915596039752018-04-10T11:00:00.000-05:002018-04-10T11:00:07.109-05:00Meet the Librarian : Emily ParksToday's Meet the Librarian profile features Emily Parks, who is responsible for assisting with cataloging and Interlibrary Loan duties, as well as kicking butt at whatever random tasks she's asked to do.<br />
<br />
Here are a few questions for Emily :<br />
<br />
<b>If you won the lottery, what is the first thing you would do?</b><br />

<br />
Today's profile is about Amber McKee who is responsible for maintaining access to the library's electronic resources, such as the library's website and databases.<br />
<br />
Here are a few questions for Amber :<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>If you won the lottery, what is the first thing you would do?</b><br />
Pay off all of our debt and our home...okay, that would probably be the second thing. The first thing I would do is go to Target and buy one of everything they sell! Ha!<br />

<br />
<b>If you could be any fictional character (from a TV show, movie, or book), who would you choose?</b><br />
My initial thought was Claudia from The Babysitter's Club books, but then I realized I'm 34 and it's sad to want to be a 13-year-old...or is it?<br />
<br />

<b><br /></b>
<b>What grown-up job did you want to have when you were a child?</b><br />
Writer! I still do some freelance writing but not nearly as much as I'd like to do.<br />
<br />

<b><br /></b>
<b>What do you have an irrational fear of?</b><br />

<b>What word do you have trouble saying?</b><br />
Rural - it's not one that I have to say that often, but it trips me up every time!<br />
<br />

<b>What was the last book you read?</b><br />
<i>Crooked House</i> by Agatha Christie. I'm participating in a reading challenge, and one of the prompts was reading a book with house or home in the title, so that was my selection after I saw it on the new shelf at the library!<br />
<br />

<b><br /></b>
<b>What book can you read over and over again?</b><br />
I'm not sure. I don't tend to like to reread books, so I guess the answer to this is nothing!<br />

National Library Week was started by the American Library Association (ALA) in 1958 as a way to "celebrate the contributions of our nation's libraries and librarians and to promote library use and support." (<a href="http://www.ala.org/news/mediapresscenter/factsheets/nationallibraryweek">Source</a>)</div>

There are also specific days of celebration during National Library Week. Tuesday, April 10, is <a href="http://ala-apa.org/nlwd/">National Library Workers Day</a>, which is a day to recognize the contributions of library workers, so be extra nice to us that day! ;) Thursday is <a href="http://www.ala.org/conferencesevents/take-action-for-libraries-day">Take Action for Libraries Day</a>, which is a day for the national library advocacy effort. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In honor of National Library Week, we're going to feature a profile of our library employees - Amber, Ashli, Bettina, and Emily. We'll end the week by discovering a little more about the library's official mascot, Phineas Phoenix. Be sure to come back and celebrate with us this week!</div>

The staff of the Vise Library has some very exciting news to share! We have teased a very exciting project (to us anyways) on our social media pages and through our Tuesday Newsday videos for months and we are busting at the seams to share it! So without further ado....</div>

Since July the library has taken on a project to implement a new library catalog system. This was no small feat and took over 5 months to complete. There were numerous (honestly we don't want to count how many) training sessions and hundreds of hours devoted to this project. Our previous catalog did not have the capabilities that were necessary for the library to function properly or allow for an easy patron searching experience. After a few disasters (unplanned down times, system not working properly and a few other unpleasant experiences) with our previous system, we set out to look for an improvement (and we found one). The library was able to rearrange its budget to make this happen and we couldn't be happier for the change. We believe that this will be a major improvement for our patrons and for the library itself. You are now able to view your account online, renew any items you currently have checked out (as long as there isn't a hold on the item), place holds on items, set-up text notifications and so many other great features. We will have several blog posts to walk you through the basic functions of our new catalog! </div>

This post will explain how to search for an item in the library's catalog and a few additional features associated with searching for items. If you are unsure how to access the new library catalog, <a href="http://cumberlandlibrary.blogspot.com/2018/01/accessing-new-library-catalog.html" target="_blank">make sure to read this blog post.</a></div>

In the search box you can search for a title, author, ISBN, or subject. In the box labeled "All Fields" by the search box, you can select what you would like search (title, author, etc.). I am just going to perform a general search for anything associated with Harry Potter (don't judge).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

As you can see this generated three pages worth of materials! I can narrow down if I want something in book form or in dvd form by clicking my desired choice under the "Material Type" section located on the left hand side of the page. You will also notice you can narrow down your search results by author or even by the publication year. Make sure to click either the "include" or "exclude" button when narrowing down your results. </div>

I have chosen to narrow down to only dvd items associated with Harry Potter. This narrows down my search to one result page.</div>

If you want to find out where an item is located, make sure to click the "Where can I find it..." bar located under each item. Once you click this, you will be shown the material type, call number and the location of the library item.</div>

You can also place a hold on the item by clicking the red "Place Hold" button next to the item in the list. You will be prompted to log-in to your library user account, which you can find out about here. </div>

Once you have logged in to your account, you will see a pop-up screen appear that asks you to confirm the hold you want to place.</div>

There are two other options we want to point out. Under the hold button, you will see two additional buttons. One is "Text This to Me." This is a great feature if you are searching for an item while at home. If you have this item's information texted to you, you can then easily pull this item up on your phone in order to locate in the library (without doing an additional search). You can also click the "Cite This" and a citation for this item will be generated (you can select the format).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
These are the basic functions associated with searching for items in the catalog. This system is a lot more intuitive when searching, but if you have any questions please let us know!</div>

If you want to see a list of holds you have placed you can do this under the "Holds" section. You will also be to see any holds that are available for pickup. Don't worry, you will receive an automatic email when items arrive for you. The "Fines" section shows any fines that you have associated with your account. </div>

<a href="http://cumberlandlibrary.blogspot.com/2018/01/ready-for-it.html" target="_blank">The Vise Library recently made an announcement concerning the new library catalog</a>. We wanted to provide a short tutorial on a few of the key features that sets this new system apart from our previous catalog system.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The most important thing you need to learn is how to get to the library catalog. You can actually access it from the same place from the <a href="http://www.cumberland.edu/library/" target="_blank">library home page</a>. Once you are on the library homepage, go to the link labeled "Find Physical Items" under the "Research" section.</div>

One exciting feature is the new book river that shows numerous book lists. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
If you click the drop down arrow beside "New Items" you will see the list options that are available. You can see the newest items that have been added to our catalog and the items that have been checked out recently. Another great feature is that you can see the latest NYT best seller lists from the previous week. You can click the arrow located to the right of the book covers to see additional items in each list and click on the book cover of an item to find out more information. You can see if the Vise Library has any of these best sellers by clicking the red button labeled "Find in My Library" (which is found next to the book that you are interested in). If the library owns this item, you will be shown the record for this particular item. If the library does not own a particular item, there will be no record displayed. However, you can always request an item through <a href="http://cumberlandlibrary.blogspot.com/2017/08/big-changes-to-interlibrary-loan-system.html" target="_blank">interlibrary loan</a> for any item the library does not own.</div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">First, welcome back! It is hard to believe that the summer has flown by so quickly. We are not mentally prepared for the upcoming school year, but we will get there. Hopefully. We will. Maybe...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">One of the main reasons this summer has flown by is that we have taken on a huge project of revamping our interlibrary loan system. This was a 2+ month process and we couldn't be happier with it (shout out to CU's IT department for helping!). This will allow for an easier way and faster results for gaining access to additional resources. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">If you aren't familiar with interlibrary loan, we can fill you in! If there is any item you need for class (or fun) that the Vise Library does not own (other than textbooks), then we can request to borrow that item from another library. It is 99% of the time free of charge (we always let you know if there is a fee involved with the item you are requesting). If there is a need for an item for your research project (or just for fun!) make sure you allow at least 2 weeks for your item to arrive. This is not a service that you can procrastinate with since things take time to get here! You've been warned.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">If you were a user of interlibrary before then you may remember what it used to look like:</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Basically it was a plain ole Google Doc that you copied and pasted information into (boooorrrrrinnnggg). This would then be accessible to the person who handles all of the university's interlibrary loan requests (me, Ashli Wells). The library aka Ashli would then go to the interlibrary loan system and request the item for the student, faculty or staff member and it would be up to the other libraries that we requested the item from to send the item to us. Ashli would then email the individual that their loan request was sent and out there in the wild. There was no way to know the progress of the item until it either arrived (happy face) or when Ashli contacted you that your request was denied (sad face). </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Let's say I find this first book to be the most intriguing.

You will just need to hit the submit request button at the bottom of the screen to complete your request. (If you are not logged-in to the system you will need to log-in before it will take you to the following screen.):</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Because it just is! It allows for requests to be submitted quickly and therefore has the potential for your items to get here at an earlier time. It also allows you, the patron, to see that status of your item at any time through this process. You also don't have to ask the library staff where your item is or if you can renew it. The biggest thing is the potential for notifications. Once you set up your preferences, you can receive notifications through your phone or email to keep you updated. These notifications also let you know when your item is due and if it is past due (Don't do that and don't make me hunt you down). </span></div>

<b>With that being said, the Vise Library decided to do a year in review. We thought it might be interesting (fun?) for you to see how the library was used this semester (we also used some fun .gifs to illustrate our point):</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<i><u>Gate count</u></i>: We had over 34,000 visitors in the library this school year, compared to 23,000 this time last year. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<i><u>Circulation</u></i>: We had over 3,000 movies, errrr, books I mean, <a href="http://library.cumberland.edu/surpass/websafari.exe/search?sid=DC81C156-F297-4D43-912A-37FF82225F3E&database=database&kind=list&list=pop" target="_blank">checked out</a> since the fall semester began. This is about 700 more than last year</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-QxPIyIQbnjo/WQokFMip_HI/AAAAAAAAB50/U85cd41d2bYXIRoPHNFfBm4yAN047b6RQCLcB/s1600/belle.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="179" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-QxPIyIQbnjo/WQokFMip_HI/AAAAAAAAB50/U85cd41d2bYXIRoPHNFfBm4yAN047b6RQCLcB/s320/belle.gif" width="320" /></a></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<i><u>Reserve items</u></i>: Our wonderful professors put specific materials aside that they feel would be helpful for our students to use in their classes. These items were used 286 times, which is about 100 more than last year.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<u style="font-style: italic;">Databases:</u> Everyone has been doing their research this semester (good job guys)! We have had over <b>170,000 </b>searches through our databases since August (130,000 last year)! We can tell when final papers have been due...there has been a steady increase over the past month or so.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<u><i><br /></i></u></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<u><i>Questions</i></u>: There is no such thing as a stupid question! Last year we were asked 3,400 questions. We have answered over 5,500 questions ranging from "How do I print something?" to "Can you help me with this citation?" to "Will you help me write my paper?" (The answer is no to the last question, in case you are wondering.)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<i><u>Interlibrary loan</u></i>: We have <a href="http://cumberland.libguides.com/interlibraryloan" target="_blank">borrowed</a> about 250 items this semester for students, faculty and staff (30 more than last year). We have also loaned around the same amount for other institutions to use. Sharing is caring. (ha!)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<i><u>New items</u></i>: This semester we really concentrated on adding not just school related items, but also fun things as well. We have added almost 900 <a href="http://library.cumberland.edu/surpass/websafari.exe/search?sid=D7E84BB8-7D04-4ADF-8164-9F794D64B680&database=database&kind=list&list=new" target="_blank">new</a> items to our collection this year (cue confetti). That is almost 300 more than last year!! You will find that we added quite a few movies for you guys to watch or fun books to read during <i>all</i> your downtime. We think it is important to offer things that help you take a breather from school, in moderation. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<i><u>IT Requests</u></i>; One million. Kidding! However, I am sure our IT department feels that way! We love our IT department. They have been very helpful to the library this year and we wanted to thank them!</div>

We wanted to thank the faculty, students and staff for being so supportive of the library this entire year. We received many suggestions for new items and we are always happy to listen to what the people want! This has been our busiest and best year ever, so we thank you.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Good luck to our students (and faculty) during finals week. We will miss the seniors that are graduating and are looking forward to seeing the new and old faces in the fall! Make sure that you stop by the library for a caffeine and sugar boost so that when you are done with finals you feel like this: </div>

<br />
<b>So I've pretty much decided that Nicole Williams is one of my favorite authors. Even though I haven't read every single book by her (I'm making my way through them, I swear!), I find that I have liked every single one of them. That's not an easy task, but somehow she always writes a good one. I was immediately intrigued when I found out about this book and its description! This is a story about Brecken and Camryn. They have loved each other all their lives, but Brecken has to go overseas for his job in the military. Camryn is, of course, very nervous about his stint in the Middle East, but Brecken reassures her that he will be back. However, Brecken is taken captive and Camryn witnesses his execution on TV. She is of course devastated and that is where this book takes off 6 years later. It turns out Brecken wasn't executed, but was instead held captive for the entire six years that Camryn has thought him dead. Camryn has a new life now that included a husband and a child and it turns her world upside down (in more ways than one) when Brecken returns home.</b><br />
<b><br /></b><b>I can't give you anything else past this point, because it would give too much of the plot away. Just know that this is an intense story and the beginning of the last chapter made my heart stop. This book has several great twists to it and has very lovable characters like all of the author's books. You will love it!</b><br />

She is working on a new YA series with Crown Books (a division of Random House) as well. She loves romance, from the sweet to the steamy, and writes stories about characters in search of their happily even after. She grew up surrounded by books and plans on writing until the day she dies, even if it’s just for her own personal enjoyment. She still buys paperbacks because she’s all nostalgic like that, but her kindle never goes neglected for too long. When not writing, she spends her time with her husband and daughter, and whatever time’s left over she’s forced to fit too many hobbies into too little time.</span></div>

ABOUT A STAR TO STEER HER BY</div>
I’m scarred. Broken. I’ll never be the same.
But I will take this journey.
Ever since my last dive ended in bloodshed, I’ve been terrified to go back into the water. But the opportunity to spend a semester at sea is too good to pass up. I need to get my life back.
I never expected to love it this much. And I never expected Tristan MacDougall.
Rugged, strong, and with demons of his own, Tristan helps me find the courage I thought I had lost and heals me with every stolen moment we share. But the rules of the ship mean we can't be together.
When a dive excursion goes terribly wrong, our only hope for survival is each other.<br />
<br />

<b>Review:</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><b>Ari has been accepted into a semester at sea program, the only problem is that Ari is recovering from a shark attack that happened 6 months ago. Not only was her body affected, but also her mind. Her relationship with her twin brother has not recovered from the accident because they both believe he was the cause of Ari's accident. She almost turned down the opportunity to sail from the Caribbean to New York numerous times, but ultimately she decides to go for it. She is of course, cautious of the water, but she starts to find her rhythm aboard the boat. She is enjoying her lessons and making new friends on her voyage. Ari's interested in one of the deckhands: Tristan. He interests her and pushes her to face her fears. They soon become very close friends and they both realize that they click together. However, it is against the rules for students and boat workers to have any kind of relationship. They both have something to lose that they have worked for their entire lives if they are found out. Tristan helps Ari face her fears and Ari helps Tristan deal with the hurt from his past. They both realize this is not a passing interest and both are afraid of what happens at the end of their voyage. Will their relationship survive the trip and what happens when it's over? Read the book to find out! (Our copy of this book will be available soon for check-out!)</b></i></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><b>This book was so much fun! It gives a lot of information about sailing and the trials of living at sea. The struggles of Ari seemed very real as she overcomes such a horrific event. She is struggling with herself and her relationship with her family. The growth of Ari was wonderful to see and I loved the developments between Ari and Tristan. There was so much adventure in this story and I found myself cheering for Ari as she confronted her fears. This was such a fun read and I loved every minute of it!</b></i></div>

ABOUT BETH ANNE MILLER
Beth Anne Miller’s first book, written in elementary school, was bound in pink fabric and was about—what else?—a girl and her horse. She soon began cheating on horses with the sea, becoming an open water scuba diver at age 14. That love of the sea led her to a college semester aboard a schooner. She returned with fond memories of the exhilaration of being on a ship under full sail, less fond memories of hurling over the leeward rail on a daily basis, and a sailing bug she couldn’t quite shake.
In addition to horses and the sea, she has a fascination for all things Scottish (including, but not limited to, men in kilts), which she explored with her first novel, INTO THE SCOTTISH MIST (The Wild Rose Press, 2011), and carried into her new novel, A STAR TO STEER HER BY (Entangled Embrace, March 2017). A native New Yorker, Beth Anne works in the publishing industry and is always looking ahead to her next voyage, whether a short one on a dive boat or whale watch, or, with luck, a longer one on a tall ship.

<i><span style="color: #999999;">From master storyteller Amy Hatvany - whose writing has been hailed as "gripping and emotionally honest" (Stephanie Evanovich, New York Times best-selling author) comes a provocative and compelling novel about two friends whose lives are changed by a drunken kiss.</span></i></div>

<i><span style="color: #999999;">Amber Bryant and Tyler Hicks have been best friends since they were teenagers - trusting and depending on each other through some of the darkest periods of their young lives. And while Amber has always felt that their relationship is strictly platonic, Tyler has long harbored the secret desire that they might one day become more than friends.</span></i></div>

<i><span style="color: #999999;">Returning home for the summer after her college graduation, Amber begins spending more time with Tyler than she has in years. Despite the fact that Amber is engaged to her college sweetheart, a flirtation begins to grow between them. One night, fueled by alcohol and concerns about whether she's getting married too young, Amber kisses Tyler.</span></i></div>

<span style="background-color: white;"><b>I will have to say that this book is very heavy and it is about a topic that needs to be discussed more often. Consent and date rape are very real topics in our society that happen "all the time." This book explores that topic between two people that have known each other their whole lives. Amber and Tyler have been best friends and Amber trusts Tyler more than anyone else in her life. She gets engaged and Tyler really hopes she leaves her fiance for him. However, one drunken kiss leads to something that will ultimately change them and their relationship forever. This book shows us both Amber and Tyler's points of views after the rape and revisiting their past friendship together.</b></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><b> </b></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><b>This book is not just for women, but for men as well in order to understand what "no" really means, no ifs ands or buts. I think this book sheds light on the fact that rape can happen to literally anyone and that it can happen from the person you least expect or the person you trust the most. It is very heart felt and really hard to read at times. However, in order to confront issues and understand them, hard things need to be taken head-on. I think Hatvany does just that and should (hopefully) make a difference into this everyday nightmare!</b></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: start;">Amy Hatvany graduated with a degree in Sociology only to discover most sociologists are unemployed. Soon followed a variety of jobs - some of which she loved, like decorating wedding cakes; others which she merely tolerated, like receptionist. </span><br style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: start;" /><br style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: start;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: start;">In 1998, Amy finally decided to sell her car, quit her job, and take a chance on her passion: writing books. Her background in sociology inspires and informs much of her writing as she tackles timely and controversial issues in her novels including mental illness, domestic abuse, and alcoholism. She is the author of BEST KEPT SECRET, OUTSIDE THE LINES (a Target book club pick in 2012 and a Costco Pennie's Pick in 2013), THE LANGUAGE OF SISTERS, HEART LIKE MINE, SAFE WITH ME (a Good Housekeeping pick), and SOMEWHERE OUT THERE (a Target Recommended Read).</span><br style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: start;" /><br style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: start;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: start;">Amy lives in Seattle with her husband and children.

Life is made up of choices.
Single choices like bricks laid out in a path. A path that leads to your future.
At twenty four years old, I would have never guessed I would be stuck between two men—two men from opposite spectrums of the universe.
Their lives, their worlds, their demeanor is as different as the darkest of nights and the lightest of days.
I love them both, but I have to choose.
There is only one choice I can make.
And I choose forever.

<i><b><span id="freeTextreview1823308021" style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px;">This book ends where Torn Between Two left us off. There was a major cliffhanger in the first book so I can't get into the specifics of where the second book begins. Sam has a really hard time throughout the book. She is torn between Hawke and Sam. Hawke's lifestyle reminds Sam too much about her mom's choices growing up. That is hard for Sam to get past. Meanwhile, Josh is determined that he and Sam belong together. But, of course, Hawke has to the potential to get in the way of all of that. This book takes you through a roller coaster of a story and all the emotions that go along with it. There is some MAJOR that happens that threatens to crumble everything that Sam holds dear. This has a satisfying ending to this duet!</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px;"> </span></b></i></div>

Mia Kayla is a New Adult/Contemporary Romance writer who lives in Illinois.

Linnie has made several improvements since she has taken over and believes that the inn will eventually be handed over to her. However, the family has always been in the care of the first son in the family. This is where some hostility with her brother comes into play and to top it off, he does something pretty terrible that makes things even worse. Not only is their personal relationship in ruins, but Linnie wonders if the business will still continue to thrive with Freddie in the picture. There is a group of women called the Sweet Lake Sirens that have taken on the task of repairing Linnie and Freddie's relationship. Linnie has to decide if she can ever forgive Freddie in order to move on. There is plenty of real-life family drama to this story and a great group of side characters. Linnie has an admirer in Daniel that makes you want to root for them throughout the entire story. This book was such a wonderful read!</b></span><br />

My late mother swore I taught myself to read at the age of two. While this claim stands unsubstantiated, I can tell you that I spent most of my childhood toting a book in one hand, and pen and paper in the other. I’ve been writing ever since.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: black; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 17px; margin-bottom: 1.5rem; padding: 0px; text-align: start;">
In 2004, I made the wisest and most irrational decision of my life, and began writing fiction full-time. The five books in the award-winning <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Liberty Series</em> have all reached bestseller status, and are “highly recommended” by The Midwest Book Review. I’ve also begun releasing the <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Heavenscribe</em> series, and have several other works as well.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: black; font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 17px; margin-bottom: 1.5rem; padding: 0px; text-align: start;">
In February 2017, look for <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Sweet Lake,</em> the first installment in the new series I’m writing for Amazon Publishing’s Lake Union imprint. The second book in the series will release in July 2017.</div>

All the years of hard work pay off daily in sweet notes, comments and reviews by readers. Please continue the mail, tweets and comments on Twitter, Facebook and Goodreads. I cherish your support and love chatting with readers.</div>

But did you know that the library subscribes to 110 databases? With that many, it's easy for some of our resources to get overlooked and underutilized. To help showcase some of our underused resources, as well as any brand new ones we subscribe to, we're starting a Database of the Month series.<br />
<br />
Our February 2017 database of the month is Flipster, which is described as "a next-generation digital magazine solution that makes it easy for you to read your favorite magazines on your computer or mobile device."<br />
<br />
Flipster has Apple and Android apps available. Once you have downloaded the app, there are three steps to complete before you can read your first magazine.<br />
<br />
First, open your device's browser, then visit your <a href="http://www.cumberland.edu/library">library's website</a> to see if your library has subscribed to Flipster. Obviously, since we're writing this, we subscribe to Flipster! ;) You will need to visit the Articles and Databases link, then go to the letter F, and click on Flipster.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-MEIOZsLD_a0/WJOGZySy5tI/AAAAAAAAAQ4/6OCh67zv6UgYNI8aV-INxa14BpDENZO7QCLcB/s1600/Screenshot_20170202-125934.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-MEIOZsLD_a0/WJOGZySy5tI/AAAAAAAAAQ4/6OCh67zv6UgYNI8aV-INxa14BpDENZO7QCLcB/s320/Screenshot_20170202-125934.png" width="180" /></a><a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-uENsem_E7SY/WJOGZ_D1ZbI/AAAAAAAAARA/gMSHPWhh9EwrXB3XK2x88RbN33IdRpbigCLcB/s1600/Screenshot_20170202-125951.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-uENsem_E7SY/WJOGZ_D1ZbI/AAAAAAAAARA/gMSHPWhh9EwrXB3XK2x88RbN33IdRpbigCLcB/s320/Screenshot_20170202-125951.png" width="180" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
You will also have to log in on the white screen by using the same username and password you use to access CAMS, Canvas, etc. Okay, so that's basically four steps in this first part, but I promise the next two steps are shorter!<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ZCCQ73ygWps/WJOGZ7Rq5lI/AAAAAAAAAQ8/wrIBWvqY7Mofa7OmV46Al5EUv6Qxs6gHgCLcB/s1600/Screenshot_20170202-125956.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ZCCQ73ygWps/WJOGZ7Rq5lI/AAAAAAAAAQ8/wrIBWvqY7Mofa7OmV46Al5EUv6Qxs6gHgCLcB/s320/Screenshot_20170202-125956.png" width="180" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Second, browse the Flipster website for digital magazines. Tap on a magazine to open it in your browser.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-WgkF_YH-3Kw/WJOGaND4a8I/AAAAAAAAARI/HLb7pTaPxI0mUkHn8JVpkY_8zOteSVTmACLcB/s1600/Screenshot_20170202-130157.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-WgkF_YH-3Kw/WJOGaND4a8I/AAAAAAAAARI/HLb7pTaPxI0mUkHn8JVpkY_8zOteSVTmACLcB/s320/Screenshot_20170202-130157.png" width="180" /></a><a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-FeJ2wymjtN0/WJOGaK56vjI/AAAAAAAAARE/ASMR-PiUYZYdVCLpZATgIU-T1DFnS5-awCLcB/s1600/Screenshot_20170202-130105.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-FeJ2wymjtN0/WJOGaK56vjI/AAAAAAAAARE/ASMR-PiUYZYdVCLpZATgIU-T1DFnS5-awCLcB/s320/Screenshot_20170202-130105.png" width="180" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Third, go to the menu in the top left corner and select 'Open in App' for offline reading.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZkPYvZ9wvKk/WJOGaL0wUFI/AAAAAAAAARM/aFp91ZlhwoYGWHHnYHOcADaVLzhc-0MAACLcB/s1600/Screenshot_20170202-130212.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZkPYvZ9wvKk/WJOGaL0wUFI/AAAAAAAAARM/aFp91ZlhwoYGWHHnYHOcADaVLzhc-0MAACLcB/s320/Screenshot_20170202-130212.png" width="180" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
The magazine you have selected will be downloaded into the app where it will remain "checked out" for seven days. You can always check it out again after that time period if you don't get to read it.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Gz1u03qdeg0/WJOGaPfs7HI/AAAAAAAAARQ/fnPFpdM62U0eN_vexpdqlZ69DyZ4otSnwCLcB/s1600/Screenshot_20170202-130227.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Gz1u03qdeg0/WJOGaPfs7HI/AAAAAAAAARQ/fnPFpdM62U0eN_vexpdqlZ69DyZ4otSnwCLcB/s320/Screenshot_20170202-130227.png" width="180" /></a></div>

<b>Sophia is getting ready to move back to New Jersey after spending several years in Tokyo with her closest friends. She has seven days left until she moves, but her world is turned upside down when her friend/non-friend Jamie moves back to Tokyo the week before she moves. Jamie and Sophia had a huge falling out before he left Tokyo the first time and have not spoken in 3 years. Meanwhile, Sophia's friends have been keeping something from her and she has a hard time letting go of the betrayal she feels. Sophia also has the chance to live with her estranged father and has to decide if that is the place she feels most at home. </b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Things with Jamie really take a turn when they both address their disagreement from the past. They start to spend more time together (in the short time that they have!) and realize there could be a lot of unresolved feelings, maybe some of the "more than friends" variety. However, Sophia has a lot of fear since her time in Tokyo is coming to a close. Can Sophia take a chance and live in the moment or will all her insecurities hold her back from living her life?</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>This book did such a great job of putting the reader in the world of the main character. I loved how the author made me feel like I was there in Tokyo and seeing the sights and sounds. The teenage angst was perfect and I felt like the problems and insecurities of being a teenager were legitimate. This book makes you feel hopeful for the future and possibilities that are in front of us all on a day to day basis. I loved this book and can't wait for more from this author!!</b></div>

I'm Cecilia Vinesse, and I wrote a book about saying good-bye to high school friends and staying out all night and the dizziness of falling in love and the deliciousness of ramen.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #615656; font-family: omnes-pro; font-size: 15px; line-height: 2em; margin-bottom: 1.25em; text-align: start;">
I was born in France but then moved to Japan. And then to the States. And then back to Japan. And then back to the States. When I was 18, I moved to New York where I was homesick for nearly seven years. After that, I got a job in a cold, snowy city in northern Japan and, from there, I headed to Scotland where I got my master's in creative writing and lived off tea, writer tears, and Hobnobs.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #615656; font-family: omnes-pro; font-size: 15px; line-height: 2em; margin-bottom: 1.25em; text-align: start;">
I still live in the U.K. and spend most of my time writing, reading, baking, and getting emotional over Tori Amos albums. Hobbies include pretending <em>Buffy the Vampire Slayer </em>is real, collecting a lipstick to match every Skittle flavor, and listening to a thousand podcasts a day.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #615656; font-family: omnes-pro; font-size: 15px; line-height: 2em; text-align: start;">
A pup named Malfi and a Renaissancist named Rachel are my favorite things in the world. That, and books. I should probably mention the books again. </div>

<i>When it comes to marriage, third time’s the charm for Linny Taylor. She’s thrilled to be on her honeymoon with Jack Avery, Willow Hill’s handsome veterinarian. But just like the hair-raising white water rafting trip Jack persuades her to take, newlywed life has plenty of dips and bumps.</i></div>
<div style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #777777; font-family: Lora; font-size: 15px; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<i>Jack’s twelve-year-old son is resisting all Linny’s efforts to be the perfect stepmother, while her own mother, Dottie, begs her to tag along on the first week of a free-wheeling RV adventure. Who knew women “of a certain age” could drum up so much trouble? No sooner is Linny sighing with relief at being back home than she’s helping her frazzled sister with a new baby…and dealing with an unexpected legacy from her late ex. Life is fuller—and richer—than she ever imagined, but if there’s one thing Linny’s learned by now, it’s that there’s always room for another sweet surprise…</i></div>

<span style="background-color: white;"><b>Linny has had very bad luck when it comes to love. She has been a widow twice and is trying her third time at happily ever after. However, there are a ton of obstacles in the way of marriage bliss. For one, her husband Jack has a teenage son that doesn't seem to care about Linny and is making things very difficult. Linny's sister is also about to have a new baby and her mother is about to go on a huge trip with several of her friends. Linny's new in-laws make it hard for Linny to feel welcome since they really adored Jack's ex (who tries to stay in the picture). Since Linny worries about all of this, she has a hard time concentrating on her own marriage.</b></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="background-color: white;"><b>This book starts with Linny and Jack's honeymoon that is a white water rafting trip. Even though Linny does not enjoy this type of thing, she agrees to go because she knows this will make Jack happy. Unfortunately, the two have to cut their honeymoon short when Jack's son is super upset about some drama with Jack's ex and needs them to come home early. This sets the path for their first year of marriage together. Linny must find her strength to be able to speak her mind and to put her needs and the well-being of her marriage above all else. </b></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="background-color: white;"><b>This story felt very real and shows that sometimes we lose sight of things that are important while focusing on the other things around us. Linny just wants to be happy and she hopes that she found that with Jack. You will have to read to find out if that happens and how everything else plays out!</b></span><br />

<span style="color: black;">Synopsis</span></h6>
<i><span style="color: #999999;">I believe in fairy tales — the kind where a knight in shining armor sweeps me off my feet. Coming from a broken home, fairy tales housed the hope I clung to. Never in my life did I imagine two knights coming into my life— two knights that wore very different armor.
A rockstar versus a lawyer.
Fast and furious versus deliberate and calculated.
Intense and passionate versus strong and devoted.
Chaos versus stability.
I fell in love with one in the craziness of a concert.
I fell in love with the other in the silence of his compassion.
And now I am Torn Between Two.

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span id="freeTextreview1823307997" style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: left;">I feel like this book is different from any Mia Kayla book that I have read in the past. This book centers around Sam and the two men in her life. She has recently moved to Chicago to work toward her dream of attending Le Cordon Bleu and to start her life over after such a painful past. One night with her friend, she meets, Hawke, her rock-star crush. They hit if off and have a lot of chemistry and Sam can't help but fall for him. However, Hawke, or course, travels a lot and is not very good at keeping in touch with Sam. He contacts her every so often in order to get his Same fix. Hawke has a lot of inner demons to fight himself. Sam meets Josh one day while shopping and they keep running into each other. He is a lawyer that has his own demons (mainly his family) to deal with. He and Sam become really close friends and he wants more from her. Sam still wants Hawke, even though the contact with him is sporadic. She has a hard time choosing what she wants, not just in men, but also going after her dreams.<br /><br />This book is the first book of a Duet. It ends on a major cliffhanger with more questions than answers. I am anxious to read the second book in this series in order to see which way Sam goes, especially with what happens at the end of this first book!</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: left;"> </span></div>

<strong>Synopsis</strong></h6>
Life is made up of choices.
Single choices like bricks laid out in a path. A path that leads to your future.
At twenty four years old, I would have never guessed I would be stuck between two men—two men from opposite spectrums of the universe.
Their lives, their worlds, their demeanor is as different as the darkest of nights and the lightest of days.
I love them both, but I have to choose.
There is only one choice I can make.
And I choose forever.

<span style="color: black;">About the Author</span></h6>
Mia Kayla is a New Adult/Contemporary Romance writer who lives in Illinois.

Ten Steps to Surviving a New Job:
1. Don’t sleep with the client. It’ll get you fired. (Sounds easy enough.)
2. Don’t blink when new client turns out to be former one-night stand.
3. Don’t call same client a jerk for never texting you back.
4. Don’t believe client when he says he really, really wanted to call.
5. Remember, the client is always right—so you can’t junk punch him when he demands new design after new design.
6. Ignore accelerated heartbeat every time sexy client walks into room.
7. Definitely ignore client’s large hands. They just mean he wears big gloves.
8. Don’t let client’s charm wear you down. Be strong.
9. Whatever you do, don’t fall for the client. You’ll lose more than your job—maybe even your heart.
10. If all else fails, see rule number one again.

She nearly dies choking on on a piece of candy while reading an email that will change her life. She is an interior designer and has been asked to do an overhaul for the brother of the guy (Ryder) that never called her after hitting it off so well four months before. What Zoey doesn't know is that her day is about to get a lot worse when looking at the job site she gets stuck in a window. To make matters worse, Ryder shows up to the site while she's in a very embarrassing position. Zoey and Ryder are forced to work together on this project since Ryder's brother was involved in an accident. Zoey is afraid working with Ryder will jeopardize her chances of getting the promotion she has been working so hard for. Meanwhile, Ryder is in a transition period with his life as a professional snowboarder after breaking his leg. He has trouble understanding what else he has in his life other than snowboarding. He is also trying to help his brother after the accident and struggles with keeping his distance from Zoey. Zoey is afraid for her job and for her heart once Ryder completely recovers. Will Ryder go away never to be heard from again after his leg heals? These two each have obstacles to overcome and understand what they want out of their life. This book was as enjoyable as the first and had a lot of great dialogue that made me laugh out loud. You will also see glimpses of past characters from the previous book, which is always a lot of fun! Make sure to give this book a try and you won't regret it!</span> </span></td></tr>

<span id="freeText722934273264351113">Marlo … wild-eyed, untamed, and every single thing I’ve ever wanted from this life. I wasn’t ready for her back then. I was a stupid boy with adult feelings and no idea what to do with them. I squandered away every chance she gave me.</span>
Yes, love like ours either burns white hot or crumbles under the pressure.
And now I’m back to sift through the rubble.
Questions and excuses are two things I have in spades. What I need now are answers.
Answers and Low.
Always Low.
My name is Ever Montgomery, and this is my story of love resurrected.

for Low and Ever! This book was done perfectly and I wouldn't change a thing.
We begin with where the first book left off (and with Ever trying to contact Low). Low and Ever cross paths after 8
hard years apart. Low is, obviously, reluctant to give Ever a chance again after how everything ended the last time. I wish I could dive into the story, but I am afraid to give
anything away. Just know that pasts are brought up and that people are
connected more than you realize! Ever realizes that he is not completely done with facing his past and neither is Low. Both of them have to let go in some way in order to move forward, but can they do that? I loved every minute of this story. It was a
beautiful story and I hate that I can't dive into these two characters again!</span></div>

<div style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">
<i><span style="color: #999999;"><br />Born this time around into a South Philadelphia Italian-American family so traditional, she and her siblings are expected to marry in birth order, Eugenia lives a simple life―no love connection, no controversy, no complications. Her hope is that the Blessed Virgin Mary (who oversees her soul's progress) will grant her heart's desire, the option to choose the circumstances of her next life. But when a student reveals he shares her ability, Eugenia suddenly finds herself setting up a Facebook page and sponsoring a support group for others like her, an oddball odyssey, during which she discovers she must confront her current shortcomings before she can break the cycle and finally live the life of her dreams.</span></i></div>

<span style="background-color: white;"><b><i>Hindsight</i> is different than any book I have read in the past. It follows Eugenia who has lived several lives and who crosses paths with people she has met before. She tries to live a simple, uncomplicated life, but when you are living life that is not really possible. She also feels weighted by all the lives she has lived in the past. Eugenia soon learns that she is not the only one that has these gifts. She even starts a support group for others like her and soon learns more about herself and what kind of life she wants to live. This book was very interesting and had some very funny parts associated with it!</b></span><br />
