The Manchaca Road Branch was originally built in 1974, not as a neighborhood branch, but as a city-owned regional branch for South Austin and Southwest Travis County. The Branch's "regional identity" was eventually dropped in the late 1980s as the Austin Public Library moved towards equalizing services among all branches. Since then, the Branch has expanded and deepened its role within the South Austin community.

We are very happy to announce the debut of a new catalog. You as a reader of this blog have an opportunity to give it a try ahead of the general launch on August 27th.

Take advantage and get that new username you've always wanted. Other things to try: Look at a jacket cover! Rate a book! Add a comment! Create a list! There's even more than that! That's enough exclamation points! Seriously though, it is a great product, and we are very happy to be moving forward with a new more social catalog.

Cover of the book A million suns
By Beth Revis.
Across the Universe is the first book in the series.
When Elder discovers shocking news about Godspeed, he and Amy race to discover the truth behind life on the space ship. They must work together to unlock a puzzle that was set in motion hundreds of years earlier, unable to fight the romance that's growing between them and the chaos that threatens to tear them apart.
