    Just look up what you need on the internet and see if you can download it. There are many sites that host many publications.

    you could never go wrong with some good old fashioned books, i personally prefer books, the smell new pages, having to dust off dust on those books we keep in our shelves

    Prefer books for one reason only - I cannot read in the bath with electronic device.

    Other than that, ebooks GREAT - went on 19 day cruise and read something like 28 books - on one small, light device.
