Pop Culture: Reach Readers in a Single Bound!

Millennials, non-parental adults, and young parents in their 30's are skipping trips to the library, visiting bookstores and video game stores instead. A Pop Culture section is our attempt to mimic those stores. By corralling our comic books, video games, anime, manga, role playing games, and other pop culture material, we are drawing attention to a collection that may go unnoticed by those who would use it most.
