Tough Topics
Legal difficulties, mental or physical health problems, bullying, and relationship issues are things that you might want to research but might not want to stop and ask a librarian about, or know how to find via the digital catalogue. Here are some of the tough topics, and some happy ones that people might not want to go public with quite yet, to help you find the books that you need. If you need help, please do not hesitate to reach out to a professional in the field or in an emergency, call 911.
Please also check out our Digital Library and our Library's Catalogue for more information about topics that may be useful.
