Library launches Wowbrary

Get e-mails updating you on all new items in our catalog!

The Sterling Heights Public Library is among the first in the country to offer its users free “Wowbrary” e-mail alerts that showcase the library’s newest items each week. The alerts feature the latest bestsellers, movies, music CDs, audio books, children’s titles, cookbooks, mysteries, travel guides, health books, science fiction and more purchased by the library. The service is being provided to Sterling Heights Public Library patrons thanks to the Friends of the Library.

“This is a great new way to enjoy and use your public library more,” said Library Director Tammy Turgeon. “People are truly amazed when they see in one place just how many great new titles we purchase each week, which they can reserve and borrow at no cost. And we cover all age groups and many diverse interests.” Turgeon also noted that the new Wowbrary alerts are extremely convenient and quickly show what’s new, whether checked out or not, all from the convenience of one’s home, work, or school computer.

With direct links to the Sterling Heights Public Library’s catalog and weekly e-mails updating users on what the library has added to the collection, Wowbrary truly is the inside scoop on what the library has to offer.

Wowbrary alerts are free and do not require a library card. E-mails are sent every Wednesday morning.
