NetLibrary

hmmm...my searches on NetLibrary turned up less than stellar results. I did two searches one for dun, dun, dun, pregnancy and one for grammar. The pregnancy search turned up results for just about every topic you can think of with the word pregnant in it anywhere in the description. Not exactly helpful when you are looking for books specifically on pregnancy. The grammar results were a little better, although I had English as the language setting and got the majority of books as Spanish grammar. I don't see this particular tool as being overly helpful for future use with the ALC. The searches produce wide results that may be difficult for students to narrow down. NetLibrary is a good idea in theory, but until you can download a book for more than the seven days and can apply it to something other than an MP3 player, it leaves the user still wanting more.
