The iPad Is Here!

Yes, we heard you, and it’s here: the Apple iPad.   To further the Dacus investigation of ereaders and similar devices Dacus has added to its collection the so-called fabulous iPad. Is it everything you’ve heard?  Why not come by and give it a test read, so to say?  All the features are there and some books have been loaded, among them, At Home, Twilight, Sh*t My Dad Says, Squirrel Seeks Chipmunk, The Help, and Breaking Dawn.  Should see a title you’d like us to add email me at herringm@winthrop.edu.

While you’re at it, check out the other ereaders in our collection: Sony PRS, Kindle, Kindle 2, Kindle DX, Edge, Ectaco, Astak EZ Reader, and others.  Plus, we’ve also added other new titles to our Playaways, the new audio book device that’s the size of a credit card and goes where you want to go, playing away the titles you wish to hear.

The rapidly changing nature of libraries makes it almost impossible for us to keep up with everything but we’re making a concerted effort to provide you with a sampling of the new tools available so you can help us make the right choices.  Stop by today and tell us what you like and don’t like about these products, or suggest new ones we should investigate!
