Part 1.
I researched emphysema and breathing exercises for emphysema. I found four books that I quickly skimmed through. They basically contained the same information, just written in different ways. I sure wish I had more time to play with these lessons, but with the other things I have going on right now, it is impossible.
I just signed up for the free EBSCOhost ebooks. Promoting this in the library once it is available will hopefully bring more usage.
Part 2.
I looked up books to find something for my students to use for Constitution Day. The following are two that I thought would answer questions and bring forth ideas from the beginning of our country to the present time.
The United States Bill of Rights : The Ten Original Amendments to the Constitution of the United States Passed by Congress September 25, 1789, Ratified December 15, 1791 and Our Elusive Constitution : Silences, Paradoxes, Priorities. There are many other routes to go with this but the one is fairly basic.
Part 3.
I chose Nebraska in this search. I came up with pages of books all published by the University of Nebraska Press. A few that I scanned through were about the history of downtown Omaha, orphan trains, Lakota religion, many about the Sioux and Oglala Sioux, and one about French women writers in the late eighteenth century. Some very interesting titles.
Good work, gram! Even if you don't have a lot of time now, you know where to go back to! Thanks for sharing your discoveries here!
