NetLibrary

I did several searches in both key word and full text to find info on the Olympic games (Olympics).  Mostly found info on the mountains in Washington State or a few references to the olympics.  Must not have any books on this topic.

Then decided to brush up on performance reviews since I have a couple scheduled.  I figured by searching for keyword or subject I would be able to limit my search to a managable list.  Mostly didn't get any results, or very minimal, so I tried an advanced search of personnel, reviews, and performance and got 243 hits.  Some of the books look really good, such as Action tools for effective managers.  However, I likely will never read a book online because it really bothers my eyes, I'll have to look for this on ILL.

My fitness person deals with older people so I recommended the book Staying fit over 50. Although it didn't have alot of new exercises, it had some interesting info on stretching, running, and motivating us older exercisers.  I also suggested Exercise for older adults by Cotton as another possibility.  It also had motivational info and lots of suggested routines.  The book is also aimed at trainers which is what she wanted.

My publisher search using Nebraska came up with 56 books, many of them native american history.  Although nothing is newer than 2002, there may be some titles that this patron hasn't read.

I don't find ebooks particularly appealing due to my tendency for eye strain.  We do assist people who find these titles in SDLN with getting signed up for NetLibrary.
