Just a quick reminder..... Don't forget to check on MediaNet for titles you may be looking for through the Union Catalog before requesting from one of the other BOCES. Medianet will have the most up-to-date listing for the Professional Library, and also titles available through the Media coser (//these titles aren't in the Union Catalog- only the Professional library's titles are//)

New to the Professional Library!!!! Last week brought some more Common Core books in to the Professional Library.


 * We now have 4 copies of //Unbroken//:**

A biography of Olympic runner and World War II bombardier, Louis Zamperini, who had been rambunctious in childhood before succeeding in track and eventually serving in the military, which led to a trial in which he was forced to find a way to survive in the open ocean after being shot down.

IL: AD / Lexile: 1260 / Common Core: 8th Grade Module 3


 * We also have 25 copies of //1984: A Novel//**

Written in 1948, 1984 was George Orwell's chilling prophecy about the future. And while 1984 has come and gone, Orwell's narrative is timelier than ever. 1984 presents a startling and haunting vision of the world, so powerful that it is completely convincing from start to finish. No one can deny the power of this novel, its hold on the imaginations of multiple generations of readers, or the resiliency of its admonitions—a legacy that seems only to grow with the passage of time.

IL: YA / Lexile: 1090 / Common Core: Grade 9 Module 3
