CURRENT DISPLAYS IN ADULT SERVICES
Some of the interesting displays to be found in adult services at this time:
Notable Books 2005--each year since 1944, a committee of professional librarians choose what they feel were the best books of the year in fiction, non-fiction, and poetry. This year, 11 fiction, 13 non-fiction, and 2 poetry selections were listed, many of which are available (and displayed) at the Elk Grove Village Library.
Art of the State Series--little (c.6" X 7") books from various states, subtitled "Spirit of America", depicting artwork by and about each particular state--and more. Our collection includes Iowa (917.77 LAN), Illinois (J 977.3 TRE), and California (917.4 FRI), and 12 others. Some are available in both Adult and Youth Services.
Travel Guides--planning a vacation trip? The Elk Grove Village Library has many different travel guides and trip planners to help set up a trip. We carry the most current Mobil Guides that cover Regions of the United State and Canada, i.e., The Great Plains (917.8 MOB), featuring town-by-town listings of recommended lodgings, restaurants, and local attractions. There are also Mobil Guides for specific cities, i.e., Las Vegas (917.9313 MOB). There are also Frommer's Guides--i.e., Atlanta (917.5823 FRO) and Yellowstone & Grand Teton National Park (917.87 FRO)--, Rough Guides--i.e., Europe (914 ROU) and California--, and Insiders' Guides--i.e., Grand Canyon (917.913 INS) and Oregon Coast (917.95 INS). There's a whole lot more.
