The Niagara College Library may not be the first place that comes to mind when you’re thinking about a relaxing, summer read.  You may be surprised to know then, that along with research material, the library also has:

- Novels by popular authors such as John Grisham, Terry Goodkind, Robert Ludlum, Sophie Kinsella and Michael Connelly.  These are pocket book sized – their size makes them easy to take with you wherever you’re going.

- Magazines that you’ll enjoy flipping through when you’re spending some free time in the library.  Both campus collections include Canadian Geographic, Health, Maclean’s, Sports Illustrated, Time and Rolling Stone.  The Niagara-on-the-Lake campus also has titles such as Bicycling, Golf, Homemaker’s Magazine and People, while the Welland Campus has Canadian Living, Entertainment Weekly, House Beautiful, Reader’s Digest, as well as many other titles.

- Non-Fiction books on many different topics.  Whether you’re interested in cooking, horticulture, health or the latest technology, the library has a book for you.  Below is a list of just a few new titles that are bound to pique your interest:
