👀#TakeALookTuesday--Series Edition

It's happened to us all probably...you choose a book, but it seems like the action starts in the  middle of things. Did you miss something? Or, maybe you've finished a great book that just leaves you hanging--what's the next book?! Is it out yet?!

Series books are great when you know you're reading a series, when you know you've started with Book 1, when you know exactly which book to read next. Right? Today's post can help with your love for series books--it's the Mid-Continent Public Library website for series and sequels.

Once you navigate to their site, you can search in a variety of ways, depending on the information you already know. Did you read a book and don't know the title of the next one in the series? Click on Book Title. Maybe you read something by an author who's unfamiliar to you and want to read more from that person. Click on Book Author.

Let's take a look: If you've read something in James Patterson's Maximum Ride series and want to know  more, you can click on Series Title and enter "Maximum Ride" in the search bar or just click on the letter "M."

Your results will give you the series books in order, along with subjects related to the book--subjects you could explore to maybe find more books you'd enjoy.

Remember, you're searching at a public library's website--and it's not our Grimes or Dallas Center public libraries. Clicking on the "Find It" button isn't going to show results for our school library or local public libraries; instead, you've learned about a book series and can know look for the book in the places where regularly check out. Still have questions or want to know if we have the book here at school? Just stop by! I'd be happy to help!
