I went to the clinic today because I've been feeling punky for about a week and a half - diagnosis - a virus. Since I was in a virus kind of mood I decided to do my search on holistic remedies for viruses. I restricted my search to ebooks and medical-type databases. The search returned 4 entries; 3 ebooks - Medically Speaking: A Dictionary of Quotations on Dentistry, Medicine, and Nursing; Encyclopedia of Natural Pet Care; and Supercharging Your Immunity. I also got one article from the Alternative Healthwatch Database - Toward a Unified Theory of Homeopathy and Coventional Medicine. The Dictionary of Quotations seemed of limited value in making me feel better, so I ignored that entry. The Natural pet care was interesting - might want to look at that later since I have many assorted animals, but hardly useful for helping people with viruses. Supercharge Your Immunity seemed like my best bet so I looked at that resource. It was an ebook that seemed interesting but was frankly impossible to read on screen because the type was so small. I tried a few different things but was unable to zoom in or otherwise increase the font size. Probabaly some easy solution but at this point I must say it escapes me. The book seemed like what I was looking for (the little of it that I could read). Perhaps downloading the ebook might make for more options when it comes to increasing the font size. I glanced at the article to see a different entry/format but it too had incredibly small type. The article seemed a bit more academic though.

A search on Constitution Day in ebooks netted many sources. I thought the best bets for high school students were the Illustrated Dictionary of Constitutional Concepts and AP US History. Younger students might be better served by Colonies and Revolution, a junior non-fiction ebook, which was definitely easier to read.

My advanced search of western history and Oklahoma turned up 40 results. As a side note, I couldn't find PB publisher in select a field - the only options were TX-all text, AU-author, TI-title, SU-subject, SO-source, AB-abstract, and IS-ISSN (am I looking in the wrong place?). In my search there were 23 ebooks, 11 ERIC records, and 6 from Healthsource Nursing/Academic Edition. There were reasonable results about the American West, an article about adult education in the state of Oklahoma, and many resources on Native Americans from Oklahoma. Perhaps the oddest result was an ERIC resource on Japan. I clicked on it to see why it was included and found that corporate source for the article was the Oklahoma State Department of Education, Oklahoma City. Probably a good idea to narrow your search if at all possible.
