Notes de l'éditeur

  1. New Tweets as they come available ; Discussions on the topic from different websites
  2. Use Google Scholar when research a new topic. It will show you the top publishers/journals/databases.
  3. Suitable Google Scholar API needs to be first released in order to get a more complete and accurate application. To keep in mind the author result.
  4. Amazon to launch 3rd generation Kindle reader
  5. New books, useful books for your users; books to purchase in the Library, etc
  6. If you don’t have the print in the library; You have distance/part-time students who can benefit of the remote online access
  7. Use Google's SafeSearch filter if you don't want to see sites that contain pornography, explicit sexual content, profanity, and other types of hate content in your Google search results.
