About my libraryBorough of Manhattan Community College Library has a really cool "leisure reading" collection! We also have 3 New Books displays, where you can browse new interesting books of all kinds: urban fiction, mysteries, romance, science, graphic novels, music, NYC, health, and more!

Welcome Back to BMCC Library! It's SEpt. 1, and everyone is in a mad rush to get their hands on their textbooks. Good luck with all of that! On the other hand, if you're looking for a good book to read on the subway, on the bus, on your couch, or somewhere on campus during a break, come to the library! we have tons of New Books on display (three different places) and also lots of new paperbacks in the Leisure Reading/Paperback collection. Get your read on! reading in general will help you do better in all your classes. we swear it's true. :)

We just bought a bunch of books from the Penguin Great Loves series

BMCC Readers: what do you think? should we buy more? each one is a slender story, novella, or philosophical writing, perfect for carrying on the subway. watch out, though, you just might cry!

ha! I think I saw a tweet about your leisure reading unpacking—had to be you. Funny! Do you follow us on Twitter? @nyrbclassics. We're in an age of total information awareness, whether we like it or not!
