Looking for a good book?
We have several resources available to help you find a good book to read:

Curbside Reading Recommendations
If you are having a hard time finding something to place a hold on while you are unable to come into the building and browse our shelves, complete this simple survey. Give us a few days and you will be notified that holds are waiting for you to pick up. Make an appointment for curbside pick-up and come find out what our librarians think you would enjoy!

Personalized Reading Recommendations
If you want a personalized reading recommendation, then you're in the right place. Just fill out the online questionnaire, and you will receive 3-5 individualized book suggestions from a Provo Librarian.

Online Booklists
Browse our top-pick lists, organized by genre or subject.
Clicking on the title of a book will take you to the catalog where you can see if the book is checked in. If it is checked out, place a hold request, and we will notify you when it is ready!

It has extensive feature content, advanced search options, author read-alikes, professional reviews, recommended reads, genre outlines, and much more.
