New Resource for Our Graphic Novel Readers

You might already know about, and receive, some of the Library's NextReads newsletters in your email. The library has just added a new newsletter to our offerings--Graphic Novels for Adults, and the first issue can appear in your inbox this month. Sign up to receive Graphic Novels for Adults and other newsletters.

Forsyth County Public Library is growing our collection of graphic novels that appeal to adults. We already have some classics and hidden gems in our collection. We have Neil Gaiman's Sandman and Katsuhiro Otomo's Akira series. Titles by Brian K. Vaughan, Art Spiegelman, Alan Moore, Alison Bechdel, Craig Thompson and Shaun Tan. We're committed to adding new material and collecting a range of types of graphic novels from superhero comics to personal narrative, from original series to non-fiction. Plus, we have the resources of our state-wide NC Cardinal Consortium to expand your choices.

We can use your help. If you're an avid graphic novel reader, and there are titles you'd like to see in our collection, please let us know. We want to offer what you want to read, please send your recommendations to Ask Your Librarian.
