Oh, no. Are you in the terrible heat blasting East or Midwest? Do you have
power? Poor Roger nnot only had the heat to centend with but no power and so
not only couldn't get cool but didn't have tv or his computer.
Yes, if your library has a web site you can search for a book in the catalog
not only by title but usually by subject. Or you can call your branch;
librarians are very helpful; and ask for books (you can tell them about
bookshare if they don't already know; that way they can pass the information on
to patrons who might need to use bookshare) on a subject, fiction or
nonfiction, or by genre, or age group. teenage or children
