What are those arrows for?

Have you noticed those bright pink arrows that have appeared recently on our website? They look like this:




They are much smaller on the webpage of course, but perhaps you have seen them. We introduced the pink arrow as an indicator for further information. Just click on the arrow and it will lead you to something relevant to the topic.

Right now we are using the pink arrow to lead you to some books and other materials that we think will be of interest to you. These titles are selected by the Kelley Library staff and are chosen to expand on the topic of an upcoming program or provide suggestions for books that are similar in theme or style to the books being read in our various book groups.

But it doesn't stop there. Once you click, check out the various menu entries on the left. This provides you with a wide range of suggested reading, new publications, newsletters that you can sign up for that will come to your email regularly with additional recommendations. There is an Author A-Z that gives a very nice overview of a ton of popular authors.

And the best part? Each of these additional pages includes a Check Our Catalog link and takes you right to our catalog for you to reserve the title you are interested in. If what you are looking for isn't there, let us know and we will be sure to get it for you - just call, stop in, or email us (our addresses are here). Oh and be sure to keep clicking the pink arrow - you never know what treasures or treats it will lead you to.

  1. Thank your for your pink arrow. I am using it on my blog to make an indication of where to download a guide for setting up a business.
