New Guide! English as a Second Language

Now our ESL students have a guide created especially for them, with the best book, eBooks and Internet sources for learning English as a Special Language and citizenship.

This guide is in a new format to which all COM Library guides will be converted. Students can rate the guides, ask COM Librarians questions, comment on any section, receive RSS updates any time the guide of their choice is updated, share on Facebook, Twitter, and other social sites, or use the suggest boxes to let us know about resources they think would be good to add.

Still Can't find that song? Try Google Discover Music

Google recently launched a new feature, Google Discover Music.

Now, when you enter a music-related query — like the name of a song, artist or album — your search results will include links to an audio preview of those songs provided by our music search partners MySpace (which just acquired iLike) or Lala. When you click the result you'll be able to listen to an audio preview of the song directly from one of those partners. For example, if I search for [21st century breakdown], the first results provide links to songs from Green Day's new album. MySpace and Lala also provide links to purchase the full song.

Put it to the test, try one of Google's sample searches:

• Artists:
  Kings of Leon, Bob Dylan, Bon Jovi
• Albums:
  21st century breakdown, Pet Sounds, Southern Voice
• Artists and a song:
  Paramore Ignorance, Plies Hypnotized, Luke Bryan Do I
