Thing #20 Ebooks

Ebooks. Years ago they could have been written about in a science fiction story. But today they are real! I was amazed at the quantity available on line. The Newington High collection is impressive. As I searched through the Marshall Cavendish books I liked the ability to adjust font size, to print or email. And it offered alternate spelling suggestions or did you mean. I really dislike reading from a computer screen and print out material whenever possible. Many of the articles I accessed were short and visually appealling with illustrations ( I know, they are termed graphics on the web). Some of the introductory screens are rather complicated for a newbie and really require attention to access information. At present my media center does not own any ebooks . I see students using them as they might on line encyclopedias to locate information. I almost forgot TUMBLEBOOKS- my all time favorite available through LWR Public library.
