Beyond Method #6

When I was first introduced to ebooks I thought it was a fabulous idea to incorporate into the library, but the more I learn about them the more difficult I find them to be. I've taken classes on this subject pertaining to libraries. It did rather confuse me as to how we would even go about the whole thing. As I read this and some of the articles linked to it I found I wasn't the only one who was confused. When you try to incorporate ebooks into a library there is so many things you have to take into account. I tried out the http://www.gutenberg.org/. In the lesson it said "do a basic search for a classic or public domain work". The first story I tried to look up was OfMice and Men (which it didn't bring up) then I tried to find The Great Gatsby (which it also did not find) and then I tried 1984 (it also didn't find). I finally tried Jane Eyre and it actually pulled this one up. http://www.gutenberg.org/files/1260/1260-h/1260-h.htm but after trying to find all these other classics with no luck I really found this sight to be more of a nusince than anything. I could actually help someone to save a ebook to their device but if they can't find the stroy they're looking for I don't see any need to save anything. In my opinion ebooks are a good at home for personal use idea but as far as incorporating them into libraries I think that there are to many "I don't knows" to do so.
