ChiltonLibrary
Extremely easy to use and navigate. Even as someone who is lucky just to know how to check the oil I'd feel pretty confident using this site to repair/change something on a car. The instructions are what I'd call 'dumbed down' so that anyone could use it, step by step. The videos are great for people who need to see how something is done rather than read about it. After all, we all learn differently. I believe the part number for the transaxle is A131L. I've tried to suggest this site to some of our male patrons who come in looking for the manuals and unfortunately most of them what the book. I will keep trying however.
Mango Languages
I would have him take a look at the list of languages to make sure the specific one he wants is available. After that show him how to set up and account and learn away. Mango makes it so easy to maneuver their site. Reminds me that i once started to learn Spanish and should get back to it. :-)
TumblebookLibrary
Tumblebooks is such a fun site. I do, however, find myself playing more games than anything else. Searching is pretty simple, put in author, title, subject or genre to get results. So, for the kid looking for mysteries, simply type in mystery and show him what's available. For the STEM story time I would suggest Bones Never Lie by Elizabeth MacLeod. I think forensics is an interesting topic for people of any age and learning history never hurts.
You would have happy customers with these answers, Toni. Re: ChiltonLibrary: it's here online for when pages in the book get torn out or the book itself doesn't get returned or falls apart. :) In Mango, a seminary student might like to look at the Biblical Hebrew, Greek, and Latin in the Specialty Languages section. Yes, Tumblebooks is easy to use, and you can find supporting material for many topics. Thanks for digging in here!
