Smile, this site is really helpful. I would have to say my small town library does the Amazon search method, we can search by word or prhase, title, author, number, isbn, series name, subject and DD number. 


But this is interesting.

Reading a book is like rewriting it for yourself. You bring to a novel, anything you read, all your experience of the world. You bring your history and you read it in your own terms. -Angela Carter, novelist and journalist (1940-1992)

Thanks, Judy and Chela, for your help. The page you directed me to is really 
helping me understand my library's site better. Judy, the numbers you gave
me are exactly what I needed. For the first time I feel like a winner with
my library. It feels good to be able to use the site with confidence.

I wonder if other people with learning disabilities have experienced my
confusion. Maybe I could talk to Pavi to see if I could collaborate with
someone to write a section about using the library for the Bookshare manual. I mean, I know I'm a reasonably smart person, but I felt ashamed for getting 
so lost. If other volunteers feel that way, a quick overview might make a
difference in their ability to find books to scan for Bookshare. What do you 
all think?
