On Display - Campus Reads: Faculty & Staff Favorites
July 1, 2025
The library is excited to feature Bentley University faculty and staff book recommendations in a special book display—Campus Reads: Faculty & Staff Favorites. The display will be in our lobby from July 1 through August 15, coinciding with the Bentley Community Learning Conference being held July 21-23. The books on display were chosen by Bentley faculty and staff who responded to our request to "share the books that have informed, inspired, or entertained you with colleagues across campus".

Almost all books submitted were accompanied by a very brief (1-3 words) description and enthusiastic personal recommendation written by the selector, and we have included those blurbs on a card attached to each book. The cards will let you know who recommended the book and why! You'll find that the submissions spanned genres and formats, including literary classics, contemporary fiction, sci-fi, memoirs, popular nonfiction, and professional reads. Print, ebook, and audiobook options are available for many of the books - giving you multiple reading choices.
We hope that the recommendations of your colleagues will help you discover your next favorite read! Thank you to all faculty and staff who participated in celebrating our community of readers.
Stop by the lobby to see the selections or view the book recommendations online on our virtual display Padlet site (must be a Bentley user to view). Visitors can view the books via our curated collections page.
