I opened an account with NetLibrary. After getting frustrated because every title, author, and subject I entered in the search found no results, I clicked on the "In Our Collection" button. After scrolling through a few pages of books I found a few that looked interesting. I can see how this would be a good tool for doing research. However, I did not see anything on the NetLibrary website relating to audiobooks. I thought to myself, gee, why don't I take a look at the NetLibrary tutorial? DUH! It shows how to log in and search for audiobooks. I then logged back into my NetLibrary account. It appears that Towson does not have any audiobooks in its collection yet. Perhaps I will check back at a later date. Nevertheless, I did see a book that I may recommend to my daughter who is currently in a job hunt.
Now let's take a look at Project Gutenberg. Well, I did see lots of titles that can be downloaded, and for free I guess. I did not bother downloading any because I'm not sure I should be doing that on my work computer. Besides, I should not be sitting at my desk and listening to audiobooks anyway; I should be working.
All in all, I think that this exercise was worthwhile.
Well, onto Thing # 23.
