Keeping up with new releases is a sure way to finding your next great read, and Books+ can help! But why the plus after Books? The plus represents more to do on this page than just discover new releases.
Upcoming and New Releases
Books+ has two sections featuring fiction and non-fiction titles for adults. Click the image of the book to read a summary and then put the book on hold using your BCPL library card. Once the title is in circulation, the requests will be fulfilled in order of holds. For more new book and DVD options, use the filtered list available through our catalog. The Hot Authors List will allow you to choose your favorite popular authors and automatically be placed on the holds list once the titles arrive.
Featured Titles
A rotating collection of titles based on a subject, author, or category is also available on Books+. Check out the page each month to see what’s new!

BCPL offers a variety of book groups covering multiple genres. To learn more about the book groups, visit Books+ and scroll down to the gray box.
