The Book Report Network

I liked 'The Book Reporter Netowrk' the best out of all the author directories I looked at. The site was by far the easiest to navigate, and had a number of other directories linked. It seemed like it might not have been as comprehensive as some of the others, though I still prefer it because of the layout.

Litlovers..

I decided to do Geraldines Brooks' 'People of the Book' as it is the most recent novel I have read, however I was unable to find it on the litlovers site, so decided to choose one of her earlier works, 'March'. The Litguide containted a summary of the book, and literary awards it had won, notes on the author, a number of reviews by newspapers and journals, as well as some discussion questions which raised issues that can be applied to all of her books.

I also completed the LitCourse 3, How to read: Finding meaning. I can see how this would be helpful, for high school or first year university students as it provides clear and concise info. However I am not sure if it would be of interest to a bookclub.

Week two- Geneology

Am finally starting to get a hang of this blog stuff....
I can see how the geneology websites would be helpfull for library patrons. probably not something I would not need to recomend that much, in my particular department but usefull to know about. I did find the license to play instructions a bit confusing this week though, but my team mates showed me how to do it =)

I feel a little dumb...

Turns out I am not as tech savy as I thought I was. I thought this would be a breeze, but I have allready made a few errors. But maybe I am just having a bad day...

I am looking forward to seeing the other people in my teams blogs, as I think they will be much more creative and exciting than mine!
Back to work...for now...
