Leisure Reading Titles Available at Cheng Library

Did you know that the Cheng Library may have the latest James Patterson book or the Britney Spears biography that you have been waiting to read?

       One of the findings of a LibQUAL survey that was conducted in the spring of 2005, was the suggestion that the Library provide recreational reading materials.  In February 2006, in response to that suggestion, the Library introduced the Leisure Lounge collection, a leased collection of popular and newly released books. 

The initial collection consisted of 200 Adult fiction and nonfiction books. Since then, the Leisure Lounge has grown to include Young Adult fiction and nonfiction books, as well as graphic novels. To keep the collection current, new books are selected monthly by the Library staff, and once a year older titles are removed and returned to the publisher. 

Leisure Lounge books can only be borrowed by William Paterson University students, staff, faculty and alumni. Books circulate for two weeks and may be renewed once. There is also a limit of three Leisure Lounge books that a borrower may have out at one time.

If you’re looking to take a break from reading course materials, you can browse our Leisure Lounge collection using the link below, then stop by the Cheng Library and check out something “fun” to read for the weekend!
