New magazine in town

Where's Newtype? Where did it go?

Did you notice that there was no Newtype Magazine for March? Yeppers, February was the last issue of publication for the English Newtype Magazine.

But have no fear! The end of Newtype USA does NOT mean the end of anime news!

Guess what- PiQ magazine is here! ADV's newest venture is called PiQ. It will now be bringing you all the anime, manga, video game, cosplay, and Japanese popular culture information that you enjoyed back in Newtype. PiQ's debut issue features articles about xxxHOLIC and Fullmetal Alchemist, among many others.

Not only does PiQ have so much great content- but the PiQ website also features a blog, RSS feeds, and even a podcast you can listen to.

And in case you were wondering, our library system does carry PiQ. So make sure to check it out!

I'll always be an American Girl!

You're never too old for American Girl, either!

Guess where I was this past Saturday? I was at American Girl Place in New York City. And last November I went to American Girl Place in Chicago. We even had some American Girl fun events at 3 of our Libraries this past March.

We may not have an American Girl Store in Florida (although there is one coming to Atlanta this fall)- but you can get many wonderful American Girl books here at your local library!
