Pine Bluff/Jefferson County Library System: May 20, 2026

About

Each week the New York Times provides a list of Best Sellers. This blog provides a partial list of these Best Sellers, along with the availability of these items at the Library.

Underlined Titles indicate that the Library has copies of these items. Clicking a title will bring title up the Public Access Catalog, where you can view availability and put the item on hold (if you have a Pine Bluff/Jefferson County Library Card and a PIN).

We also feature at the end of the Best Sellers List some of the new books coming out this week which are on order. Many times when we pre-order new books, they are available to Library Patrons within days of the release date.

If you need a library card and/or a PIN, please visit any of our library branches for more information.
