Ruminations of a Catholic School Girl by Vicki Lindgren Rimasse out in #ebook #writer #author #FED_ebooks

Ruminations of a Catholic School Girl (Who Thinks in Latin but Lives Near Hackensack) by Vicki Lindgren Rimasse has been released by First Edition Design Publishing in eBook format and distributed world-wide.

Ruminations of a Catholic School Girl is a compendium of random thoughts on food, love, sex, shopping, marriage, divorce, death, rebirth, the existential vacuum and music through essays, notes passed in class, and diary entries. With vivid imagery and sardonic commentary, brings to life the story of a Boomer from Long Island, Gwen Patrick (the author’s alter-ego), who loves shoes, Beaujolais, shopping, food and most of all – food, family and friends. Chronicling her life from her first experience with parochial school in the 60s through her son Zimmerman’s high school years, it tells the story of a Long Island boomers experience and continuing journey. With references to Plutarch and Popeye, the Bible and Sex and the City, Jim Morrison, Joni Mitchell and Opera, Gwen’s journey will resonate with women of any age – and men who understand the importance of having the right mustard for their pastrami.

“Very well written. A great, fun read,” said Deborah E. Gordon, CEO and Executive Editor at First Edition Design Publishing.

Ruminations of a Catholic School Girl in ebook is available through the Amazon Kindle store and numerous other on-line retailers around the world.

ebrary, a ProQuest business and provider of ebooks and research technology, announced that the results of its survey of more than 1,000 librarians regarding ebook mobile and offline access is now publicly available online. Anyone may register to receive the full results along with a paper authored by Allen McKiel, Ph.D. and dean of Library Services at Western Oregon University, at http://www.tfaforms.com/222151.

Among other key findings, the survey revealed that 92% of librarians find providing offline access to ebooks more or equally important than providing online access. “Librarians in this survey clearly reflect a view of the critical nature of portability to the future of ebooks,” wrote McKiel. “The clear preference for offline mobile access has its roots in the experience of reading a print book. In order for the experience of reading an ebook to be as satisfying as reading a print book it must at least provide similar ease of use. The two simplest expectations are portability and usability. You need to be able to hold it comfortably, turn the page, and find things in the book. Tablets are getting better and better at providing the basics for the reading experience. They also provide the additional benefit of providing access to a portable library.”

ebrary recently launched download capabilities and will soon announce a dedicated mobile app for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch.
