Remember:
1. You don't need to read the whole thing - just scan the table of content or index for relevant info
2. E-books are books, too. And they're searchable, and available from anywhere. Just log in with your Brock ID.
Use Omni, Brock's interdisciplinary search tool, to find books and background information:
These are excellent sources of background information -- just log in with your Brock ID if you're off campus.
