Resource Spotlight Update: New Nolo Books

You may recall last year we wrote a blog post highlighting the new selection of Nolo books that our Reference librarians added to our collections. We started out purchasing seven Nolo titles and quickly found them to be very popular amongst our patrons conducting research in our reading room.

Since then we’ve added several new Nolo titles which have already been popular. These new titles include:  

• Renters’ Rights
• Every Tenant’s Legal Guide
• How to get a Green Card
• The Essential Guide to Family & Medical Leave
• Divorce Without Court
• Social Security, Medicare & Government Pensions
• The Executor’s Guide
• The Small Business Start-Up Kit

As we mentioned in our previous post, these books are part of our non-circulating Reference collection. While you won’t be able to check them out, you can always use them in the library, Monday-Friday, 9am-5pm. Our Reference librarians can’t provide legal advice, but we can connect you to our Nolo books and other legal resources you may be interested in!

Reach out to us at Reference.Department@mass.gov or 617-727-2590. We’re always happy to provide research assistance.
