Proquest

Searching  Barnes and Nobles’ web site for the next book in the Ranger’s Apprentice series, I was drawn to the title of a book in the “new book release” scroll;  The Water Secret: The cellular breakthrough to look and feel 10 years younger.    Perhaps it was because it has been below zero for the past week, or it is midterm of the 3rd quarter, or the approaching birthday…whatever the reason, I decided to check it out.  What an interesting concept, healthy cells equate to healthy mind and body.  I wanted to know more, so Proquest was the answer.  I searched by the book title and author and discovered a wide variety of articles, ranging from book reviews, to scientific studies, to the products the author markets.  The broad scope of articles gave me a good perspective….I’ll be checking it out from the public library!
I appreciate the insight and suggestions from my cohorts…thanks!  I agree with SMSEaglesLibrary and JeanWKLibrary finding our professional journals online will keep us connected and ease our budgets.
