Baldwin New Titles 2/19/2013. Argo, Academy Award Best Picture Nominee tops list.



Editors Note: Due to popular demand we have upgraded this feature to include the Item Details from the Baldwin Library for DVDs.

  • Baldwin Library Card holders will be able to place a hold directly from this page.
  • Find more titles from the same author, or find more on the topic discussed.
  • You will also be able to see how many copies are available and what their status is.
  • Some titles will provide an estimated waiting period. 

It is essentially the same info you would get by clicking on the red check availability  link but now you don't have to click. We believe your time is valuable and we appreciate the time you spend with us. We hope the inclusion of Item Details will provide the information you seek quickly and concisely. Light Blue items will take you to more info on the library's website.

Regrettably  we have not been able to do the same with books. For whatever reason the same info as is available for DVDs takes up more than our allotted space with books. Since what we offer as new and improved is really the result of playing around we will  continue to experiment with books. 

The information proved for DVDs is current as of this writing. If you are viewing this page a week or so down the road, Check availability next to the DVD or Book description will take you the latest Item details information.
