New York Times Business Best Sellers — February 2012
This Sunday's paper listed the New York Times business best sellers. Rankings reflect sales for January 2012. Below are several of the titles culled from that list, sorted by genre, with links to our catalog.
The New York Times rank for each title is found after the author's name, and paperback titles are indentified as such. In addition, the list has been annotated and supplemented by identifying and listing books from Nielsen BookScan's top 10 hardcover business titles as published in the Saturday, February 4 edition of the Wall Street Journal.
A couple of titles listed have not yet been added to the Library's catalog, but are on order and should be available soon, so check back later.
Enjoy!
