New! Our library catalog now also shows items belonging to our partner libraries in the Marmot Library Network. You can place holds on most items from any library in the network and they will be sent to the Aims Learning Commons for you to pick up. Please know that it can take time to get items from other libraries, so plan accordingly.

The default for search results is ‘All Libraries’. Once you complete your initial search, you can limit to items belonging to Aims Kiefer Library by clicking on the ‘Aims Kiefer Library’, ‘On Shelf', or ‘Online Resources’ tabs below the search box.

To see what TEXTBOOKS the library has for a specific class, use the search box below and change the last dropdown box to either ‘in Course Reserves by Name or Number’ or ‘in Course Reserves by Instructor’. 

To REQUEST A TEXTBOOK (even if we don't currently have a copy available in the catalog), or a laptop/tablet/hotspot, please use the 'Reserve an Item' form.

Description
"Conventional wisdom holds that television was a coconspirator in the repressions of Cold War America, that it was a facilitator to the blacklist and handmaiden to McCarthyism. But Thomas Doherty argues that, through the influence of television, America actually became a more open and tolerant place. Although many books have been written about this period, Cold War, Cool Medium is the only one to examine it through the lens of television programming."--Jacket.
