Top Library Technologies-Digital Books

   Digital books are the newest , biggest thing  that  both public and school library's offer   Patrons can download and borrow books to their readers and enjoy the latest books with ease and accessibility.  Most libraries now have ebooks and emagazines that patrons can browse and borrow ,. There are also sites that allow online reading, some of which  I have already reviewed here at this blog.  I continue to search  out the latest  on  online reading and learning.  I feel that as librarians we need to keep up on the latest sites for patrons reading.

   What are your  thoughts on digital books? Do you use them your self? Do you promote them at the public library? Do you have them at  your school- How are they used?? Who uses them?

Free E book site

Here is another free ( Mostly)  e book site. So far in my searching this looks like fun. You get up to 5  free books every month. There is a fee if you want more than that- but in my book 5 books  a month seems okay because  of the other sites out there- which I continue to search  out and explore. So  check it out and see if you like it also.

They seem to have a lot of variety of books . I could explore this site and find some great reads. The youth section has mostly classics but it would be nice for vacation to read some of the books I haven't read in years.
