Take a chance on a new love! Pick a book based on its description and check it out!

Only 46 items from our collections are wrapped and placed near our One-Stop Desk and reading areas on the 2nd floor of Armacost Library. Descriptions of the book are written on the wrapping to intrigue you. The Blind Dates are located near the Blind Date With a Book 2013 signs (BDWB13). Look for these and take a chance!

Blind Date With a Book 2013 (BDWB13) runs from February 4 to March 1, but only while Blind Dates are available. Blind Dates may be checked out by any patron with current borrowing privileges. Regular borrowing policies still apply. All Blind Dates are poetry and fiction. Some are film adaptations of books.
