Our first Nook borrower

Ever used an eReader for school work before? 

Well, here's your chance, The Ritz library has picked up ten Barnes & Noble Nooks, loaded them with commonly assigned works of literature and is now loaning them out to students. 

These are the latest GlowLight models, ultra light in size and  with the highest text resolution of any eReader out there.

Each Glowlight comes with a selection of classic plays, short stories, poetry, primary sources and novels, many of which  are required reading assignments for  English, History & Speech courses. 

We are adding new books to the Nooks all the time, if you have a suggestion, see us at the Reference Desk, call 431-8634, or send email.

A  GlowLight can be taken out for two weeks at a time. Sorry! No renewals.
