A Look at the New Harry Potter Cover...

There is a great post at USAToday.com that talks about what else appears on the back and inside the cover--this time it is a wraparound. The Dark Lord himself makes an appearance.

For a good shot of the wraparound cover, check out the the Leaky Cauldron page. You can also see the UK versions, too. (They have a UK and a UK Adult version of the cover. Interesting clues on both of them. Is that Slytherin's locket?)

Don't forget that you can place a hold on Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows in the library catalog.

Thanks for reading,

More Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows News

If you saw Kari's post over at In the Stacks, you might have been worried about the environmental effect of a book that large. (Or like me...just excited that it is coming out.)

USAToday reported on Scholastic's choice to go green with this title.

The most astounding fact? Over 16,700 tons of paper will be used during the first run of 12 million copies (U.S. printing only).

Kari, at In the Stacks (the Asheboro Library blog), has posted the link to the library catalog for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. This is the seventh and final book in the series (hence the black armband that I wear) and is due out on July 21.

You can click through and place a hold.

Do you need to do some catching up before the big release? Search the catalog by author for J.K. Rowling.
