Task 13 - Music downloads

Wow,

This task was probably the most fun so far! I love Science Fiction and I love NOISE! So Soundsnap was the perfect find. I did Sci-Fi effects of course. My faves were 'Sound design boom', 'Data chirp' and 'Sci-Fi' electricity. I think that some sound on our website would be fun. Maybe pages turning or something would be kind of interesting.
I loved looking through the different types of free music on Jamendo. I found some great new Jazz, Antony Rajekov!

Well looking forward to Task 14!

Task 12 - Novelist Tour

Well this task was probably the easiest one for me, because we use Novelist all the time. I probably use it most for looking up different series. Some of these authors make their books nearly impossible to keep in order! Novelist makes it easy to give patrons a list of their favorite books and in the right order.

All right Nancy, I'm all caught up and I am SO ready for the next 12!!!!!!!!

Task 11 - Author Resources on the Web

Hello All!!!!!

I found out some pretty cool stuff on this site! I loved the Teen Reads. It's great to know what our teen patrons are up to and what they're interested in :)

I also looked up Stephanie Meyer, but really wasn't expecting much about her because she's still pretty new. I actually found out a lot about the women who wrote the books that are flying off shelves (if they ever get there in the first place. Most of the time they just go on the holdshelf!)
I found out that they are planning on doing a Twilight graphic novel, which is actually pretty cool!


See Ya on Task 12

Task 10 - Explore Research Databases

A-Z research is my new best friend! I loved going through all of the Biographies and it was SO simple. I was able to pull up my boys, Sammy Davis Jr, Dean Martin and Sinatra with no problems! And I discovered a lot of books I hadn't read about them, BONUS!
The EBSCO tutorial was also really informative.
Like I said, highly recommend it :)

Bye 4 Now

Off to do Task 10!

Task 8 - CC

Hello All!!!

I'm finally back from my Vacation, I had such an awesome time! Now I'm ready to tackle the rest of my webolution tasks :0
So I actually had kind of a hard time with this one. i understand how it can be so useful to our patrons, expecially those looking into the music business. It's a good site and I'm glad that I know about it know.
I tried looking up different artists that I might enjoy, but I didn't have much like finding the style of music I liked. I may have to spend a lot more time on CC to get more familiar!
