Are you feeling lucky? 
Edison Public Library is initiating a new service for patrons:

              The New York Times Best Sellers - Lucky Day Collection

The Lucky Day Collection provides multiple copies of popular titles for patrons who do not want to wait.

These items will be available on a first come, first served basis. Patrons will not be able to place a hold on them either virtually or by telephone.

Loan periods will be 14 days. Only two Lucky Day Collection books may be checked out at one time. Items in the collection can only be renewed once. 

The Lucky Day Collection can be found in the New Books Section of each branch.

Trivia:

Today's New York Times Bestseller list was first published in its modern form in August 1942. (https://www.nytimes.com/2021/10/21/books/review/the-first-new-york-times-book-review-best-seller-list.html, 04.07.22)
