Bookmarking on your MP3 player - what is the story?


If you are an audiobook listener and have wondered why you can't return to your place when you stop, here is the article that explains it all. There is also a nifty chart of MP3 players with great bookmarking functions - if you are looking to upgrade. Don't forget that you have access to a lot of free audiobook material via Howell Library's subscription to NetLibrary via NCLive.

NCLive Password will change Fall Semester

Wake Tech faculty and students:

Keep in mind that the NCLive password will change beginning fall semester. Please make an effort to get the password from the library before you need it to do your research. The best way to get the password, which changes every semester, is to stop by the library and pick up an NCLive Bookmark.

Remember, your tuition, in part, pays for your access to NCLive, so use it early and often! You can access full text, scholarly, peer reviewed material via EBSCOhost and other databases available through the library website.
