Books are an excellent source of information.  Here are some of the reasons to use books.

• Books provide both in-depth and broad information on a specific topic.  They are great for historical information!
• Books are usually well-researched in a specific area, which means that it can take years for a book to be published.  Just remember, this may mean that a current or popular topic right now may not have any books published yet.

Tips to using books and ebooks.

• Use the table of contents and the index to quickly find the pages that are of interest to you and your topic.
• Use the search feature on ebooks to search for specific keywords to quickly jump to the sections that are most relevant to you.
