New Communication Books in the BC Libraries

New books on many aspects of communication studies continue to be added to the BC Libraries’ collections all the time. There are a couple of ways to see what has arrived in recent weeks.

An RSS feed on the Libraries website -- http://bc.edu/libraries/materials/rssfeeds/communication.html -- shows recent additions with the newest ones always at the top. Click on any title to go to the full record in Quest, the BC Libraries catalog, for more information.

You can visit this page at any time or, if you use an RSS feed reader like Google Reader, Bloglines, or My Yahoo, you can click on the orange RSS icon to add it to your own page.

For a more categorized list of new communication books, go to http://www2.bc.edu/~lissk/newbooks/. Here you’ll see links to sets of the most recent additions and to books on particular aspects of communication (i.e. Television and Radio, Interpersonal Communication, Rhetoric, Gender and Communication, and more.)

If you want to recommend a communication-related book for the collection, send the info to me in an e-mail or sign in to your account in Quest – there’s a link at the top of the page – and click on Recommend Library Materials. Just be sure to select Communication from the subject list on the recommendation form so that your recommendation gets to me and not to another librarian.

One last note: If you come to O’Neill Library for a new book and don’t find it on the shelf, check out the New Books display area in the lobby. It may be there.
