Seems like as good of a time as any to get you caught up on what you can now check out from our collection.<\/p>\n<p>Our biggest new title for the second half of September is <i>Mad Max: Fury Road<\/i>, possibly the best post-apocalyptic feminist action epic featuring a guy chained to the front of a truck playing a flamethrower-guitar (pictured). If you don&#8217;t want to watch that for the third time, you may want to start a critically acclaimed television show you&#8217;ve meant to watch. And we have several: the first seasons <i>The Knick<\/i>, <i>The Comeback<\/i>, <i>The Honorable Woman<\/i>, and Viola Davis&#8217;s breakout hit <i>How to Get Away with Murder<\/i> are now all available from the library. The more politically minded might also want to see a documentary about the life of the late Gore Vidal.<\/p>\n<p>Follow the link for a full list of what we added&#8230;<br \/><a name='more'><\/a><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3>Home Use Collection: <\/h3>\n<p>Modern Family, Season 4 \u2013 HU DVD 8954<br \/>Show Boat \u2013 HU DVD 9677<br \/>Orphan Black, Season 3 \u2013 HU DVD 11474<br \/>Broadchurch, Season 2 \u2013 HU DVD 11484<br \/>Violette \u2013 HU DVD 11732<br \/>The Honorable Woman \u2013 HU DVD 12325<br \/>Gia \u2013 HU DVD 12381<br \/>Song of Youth \u2013 HU DVD 12421<br \/>The Monuments Men \u2013 HU BLU 12424<br \/>The Monuments Men \u2013 HU DVD 12424<br \/>A Stranger Among Us \u2013 HU DVD 12427<br \/>The Sugarland Express \u2013 HU DVD 12436<br \/>Inside Daisy Clover \u2013 HU DVD 12438<br \/>Losing Isaiah \u2013 HU DVD 12439<br \/>Mi Vida Loca \u2013 HU DVD 12440<br \/>&#8217;71 \u2013 HU DVD 12443<br \/>The Alamo \u2013 HU DVD 12444<br \/>What We Do in the Shadows \u2013 HU DVD 12447<br \/>White God \u2013 HU DVD 12448<br \/>Clouds of Sils Maria \u2013 HU DVD 12449<br \/>The Wrecking Crew! \u2013 HU DVD 12450<br \/>Jauja \u2013 HU DVD 12451<br \/>Greedy Lying Bastards \u2013 HU DVD 12452<br \/>Gore Vidal: The United States of Amnesia \u2013 HU DVD 12453<br \/>Mad Max: Fury Road \u2013 HU DVD 12486<br \/>Mad Max: Fury Road \u2013 HU BLU 12486<br \/>A Perfect Murder \/ Murder By Numbers \/ Murder in the First \u2013 HU DVD 12488<br \/>Sucesos Distantes \u2013 HU DVD 12489<br \/>Night Train to Lisbon \u2013 HU DVD 12490<br \/>Proof \u2013 HU DVD 12491<br \/>Company \u2013 HU DVD 12492<br \/>In Tahrir Square \u2013 HU DVD 12502<br \/>The Comeback \u2013 HU DVD 14149<br \/>How to Get Away with Murder, Season 1 \u2013 HU DVD 14150<br \/>The Knick, Season 1 \u2013 HU DVD 14195<\/p>\n<h3>In-Library Titles: <\/h3>\n<p>A Time for War, A Time for Peace \u2013 DVD 6953<br \/>This Honorable Court \u2013 DVD 12243<br \/>Team Building \u2013 DVD 12244<br \/>Bullied \u2013 DVD 12351<br \/>Courage &amp; Hope \u2013 DVD 12357<br \/>U.S. Minorities at the World Bank Group \u2013 DVD 12360<br \/>The Romantic Era \u2013 DVD 12434<br \/>Hamlet, North Carolina: Our Jobs, Our Lives? \u2013 DVD 12445<br \/>Hands That Picked Cotton \u2013 DVD 12446<br \/>Circles-Cycles: Kathak Dance \u2013 DVD 12483<\/p>\n<h3>Music Library DVDs:&nbsp;<\/h3>\n<p>The Last Five Years &#8211; MUSIC LIBRARY DVD 165<br \/>Company &#8211; MUSIC LIBRARY DVD 166<\/p>\n<h3>Thesis DVDs:<\/h3>\n<p>Step Up \u2013 THESIS BLU 92<br \/>Strength, Courage, and Still I Rise \u2013 THESIS DVD 93<br \/>Losing Focus \u2013 THESIS DVD 95<br \/>Heroine \u2013 THESIS DVD 96<br \/>My Boyfriend Got a Beatle Haircut \u2013 THESIS DVD 97<br \/>Millennial Dating \u2013 THESIS DVD 98<br \/>Nooshtube \u2013 THESIS DVD 99<\/p>\n<p>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DC&#8217;s 90-degree days are finally behind us.
