Students and faculty are combatting increasing textbook prices by turning to technology. eBooks — digital versions of textbooks — are showing a rise in popularity among university campuses, where libraries have been making a larger effort to bring the online texts into their collections.
Among the universities is Western, whose ever-growing e-resources began in the late 1990s when it first started incorporating eBooks into its library system.
“As with many electronic products, we can assess usage through statistics from publishers,” Karen Marshall, Western’s assistant librarian said. “Our users are telling us that they are excited about the eBook revolution and are using them consistently.”
Freddy Vette is bringing sexy back. But the sexiness he and his band provide comes from an era a bit before Justin Timberlake’s time.
Freddy Vette and the Flames perform 1950s rock ‘n’ roll stage shows. The songs they play come from such classic performers as Elvis Presley, Buddy Holly and Jerry Lee Lewis.
Vette’s goal is to bring audiences back to a time when music was about sex, rock ‘n’ roll and just being a teenager.
“The ‘50s [have] been sugar-coated a little bit,” Vette says, noting that when he goes to see 50s shows from other acts, there’s a lack of ferocity in the performances.
