I've created yet another account to something I might remember to use. I watched the "Introduction to NetLibrary, which was eaily explained. I've been going through our list of ebooks and I find the collection of titles rather boring. Nothing really takes my fancy. I can see the use of all the non-fiction, but if I was to use it I'd be wanting popular fiction I can listen to, and I think I saw about 20 plus about another 25 kids books and that was it. The classics fictional material like Shakespeares works with the full e-book and then the Cliff Notes e-book would be useful if you were studying those books. (note to self-remember to show to local high school teacher who brings classes in). And there are a few kids fiction books and biographies about famous people, but how is an e-book of an Anatomy colouring book going to work without the pictures to colour in?
Sadly I'm a visual learner, I like to see what I'm reading. And the whole touching the pages, smelling the pages, handling the book is all part of the experience. But I will be interested to keep an eye on what else gets added. There was 1 (The good, the bad and the undead) which completely doesn't go with any of the other 772 books which is a fantastic novel. If there were others like that I may download them to listen to.
