At the moment, we are working at putting all fiction book series in order and to see if we are missing any.

As always, we are open to recommendations from our patrons. If there is a particular author or book that you would like to see added to our collection, please let us know and we will do our best to accommodate you. Patrons can also access books not in our collection by requesting an Interlibrary loan. Please call the circulation desk for further information.
