10 Most Wanted Books - August 2021 These are the library's 10 most checked out books for August 2021

September 13, 2021

August 2021 was a great month for reading at the library. Because of the library's Books On Demand service with multiple books on a single cartridge, we can serve many more patrons many more books at a one time and it shows in August 2021's 10 Most Wanted totals. These are the books that we sent most often to patrons on cartridges from NCLBPH. Note, all books were checked out at least 256 times over the month. The top book was checked out 381 times:

DB103412 - Blood and treasure: Daniel Boone and the fight for America's first frontier by Bob Drury
DB103443 - What's mine and yours by Naima Coster
