Choosing Among Options

At ISU, the Department of Agriculture, the Department of Economics, and the Department of Technology have teamed up to provide a new undergraduate major in Renewable Energy. In response to this, the Technology Librarian and I ordered 56 books this spring to support the courses being offered and research being conducted.

This week I checked the status of these books, and 48 of them are available in Milner Library, although a few of them are already checked-out. The available titles are:
