American River College Library In a rather mavericky move, Slate has created a hilarious index to Sarah Palin's new book.
Slate's unauthorized index of Sarah Palin's autobiography, Going Rogue. - By Christopher Beam - Slat

When Sarah Palin's 413-page autobiography, Going Rogue: An American Life, hit stands Tuesday, readers discovered the governor's most mavericky move yet: The book lacks an index. So Slate has compiled its own. Just print out this index, paste it into the ba

What makes a book worth Oprah's time? John McWhorter flags the strongest, smartest writing on race that slipped through the cracks. Somehow.
American River College Library ARC faculty and staff, I'd love your input on this: Would you be more likely to check stuff out of the library if we delivered items to you through interoffice mail? If you didn't actually ever have to come to the library? Thanks!
American River College Library Here are a few fun examples of what Google Suggest reveals about people's searching habits.

Part illuminating, part entertaining and part terrifying, Google Suggest is a window into the collective search psyche of our fellow humans.
American River College Library Just found a very intriguing article in one of the databases titled "Casual Sex." From the abstract: "This essay explores the homosocial world of hobos, tramps, 'casual labourers' and other itinerant workers in early twentieth-century North America."

American River College Library Initially excited to hear that the authors of Freakonomics have a new book coming out.
