Graphic Novels

I wish the library would…

Have more graphic novels on display like Maus, Scott Pilgrim or Persepolis.


The library actually owns Maus I (Call #D810.J4 S643) and Maus II (Call #D804.3 S66). We have Persepolis too (Call #PN6747.S245 P4713). And while they are not on display downstairs; they are on “display” upstairs in the book stacks. Unfortunately we don’t own any of the Scott Pilgrim series, but you can request that we get them from another library for you via interlibrary loan (affectionately known as ILL in the library world). A quick search of the SUNY Catalog shows several Scott Pilgrim titles and that a few different libraries own them. To use the SUNY Catalog go here: http://search.sunyconnect.suny.edu/. Do your search & click on the title you want. Next click on the “Request item” link, find your campus and you’re well on your way. If you need help completing the request – just ask one of the library staff. And, we do buy books “on request”, so if you have any additional titles you would like to see, please let us know and we’ll consider them for purchase.
