TRAC is being updated starting September 25, and during this time it will not be accessible. The library also won't be able to process books during this time, which means there may be issues with checking out and returning books.
To be safe, make sure you order books ahead of time and pick them up before September 25 to avoid delays.

Looking for your next summer read? Consider "Wild Dark Shore" by Charlotte McConaghy 📖 Although Tangent Library does own a copy, this book is in such high demand that it hasn't even hit our shelf yet.
If you want to request this book, you can make a "Hold Request" through TRAC or contact us and we would be happy to put a hold request on it for you!

"A family on a remote island. A mysterious woman washed ashore. A storm gathering force.

Dominic Salt and his three children are caretakers of Shearwater, a tiny weather-lashed island that is home to the world's largest seed bank. As Shearwater risks being lost to rising sea levels, the island's researchers have fled, and only the Salts remain.

Until, during the worst storm in living memory, a stranger washes ashore. The family nurse the woman, Rowan, back to strength, but it seems she isn't telling the whole truth about why she's there. And when Rowan stumbles upon sabotaged radios and a recently dug grave, she realises that she's not the only one on the island with a secret.

A novel of breathtaking twists, dizzying beauty and ferocious love, Wild Dark Shore is about the impossible choices we make to protect the people we love."
