This summer came in blazing and bright. Some might say that it stayed a little too long this year. To those fans of cooler temperatures, longer nights, and darker themes, we offer Sunshine Blind.
Put on those sunglasses after dark and throw on an oversized wooly sweater! The Sunshine Blind book displays at our North Las Vegas and Charleston campus libraries will keep you seeking out the mysterious all September long. Be sure to check our digital offerings, too!
