[Publib] adult graphic novel collection

[Kevin Okelly]

My library actually doesn't have a written policy regarding graphic
novels. However, I am sure our selector would love to share her thoughts
with you--she's very enthusiastic about the genre. She'll be in tomorrow
and I can mention it to her if you like.
