As we sprint towards the end of October (and the Digital Library milestone of 20,000 items available online – currently as of this writing we stand at 19,969), we find a large number of new titles available for your reading pleasure. Continue to experience the Barry-Hayes papers as newly digitized letters and manuscripts depict life in early America. Catch up on the ongoing saga of the podcast reading of “Bride of the Tomb” or even read one of the newly available dime novels and story papers!

So lean back, sip a mug of warmed apple cider, ponder the falling leaves, and start reading!
