Learning Express Library

This database in unlimited. It offers very valuable resources ranging from practice tests and resume writing to ebooks on numerous topics. Even those patrons who feel they are not computer literate will feel comfortable using this datebase.

I choose to start the PSAT practice exam. This was an excellent practice exam. This is no pressure to finish within a certain amount of time and the explanation on how the solve the problem is very easy to understand. Many students will find these practice exams very valuable. The other practice exams available make this database an excellent addition to all libraries. It is very expensive to purchase all these exams and keep them up-to-date. The Learning Express Library makes is possible to offer current practice tests to all patrons.

The job searching and workplace skills is a valuable asset to the database. We have numerous patrons who visit the library who are actively seeking employment. The resume writing is very user friendly and the process takes no time. I have not developed a current resume and found the process very encouraging. Many programs cause some frustration by the time you have completed the resume. This is very easy to follow and offers excellent tips as you progress.

The ebooks are great. I choose a book on alternative careers for teachers. It was very easy to maneuver within the text and the information very current. The font was easy to read and the program was again was very user friendly. There are many options within the book such as searching, viewing pages, go to a page number, view comments and attachments, print, save, share the document, and create a PDF. The cost savings for all libraries is tremendous.
