Place a "Standing Order" for Books by Popular Authors

 

Join Vineyard Haven Library's "Standing Order" program to automatically order forthcoming books from your favorite popular authors. Just fill out our online form, and library staff will add you to the advance hold list for any future books by the authors you select, then contact you as items become available. This program helps the library know how many books to order, and places our patrons higher on the waiting list since holds are placed prior to publication.

If you've been enrolled in the program in the past, you can use the form to update your selection -- we now have more than 200 authors to choose from. Sign up for Standing Orders here: https://forms.gle/RCqwheVUm8ndimJ46

For other ways to choose titles, see what's new and popular, and learn what's coming soon:

  • Visit the "New Books" page on our website to see books added to the collection this week. This page is updated weekly, and includes a description for each title and a direct link to the CLAMS catalog to place a request online. Visit:  http://www.vhlibrary.org/newbooks.shtml
     
  • Our "Books on the Air" page makes it easy to find books you've heard discussed on NPR and on news and talk shows. This weekly update is published every Friday. Visit:http://www.vhlibrary.org/booksizzle.shtml
     
  • Try Novelist! Created especially for people who love books, NoveList Plus is the premier online database for reading recommendations, for readers of all ages. You will need your CLAMS library card number to login to Novelist.
