Library

okay, I am a foreign student currently studying in Egypt, i would like to know any public libraries in Cairo, apart from those universities’ libraries. The ones you can go in and browse books for free and read or borrow them.I know there’s one, Mubarak Public Library if im not mistaken. Anyone care to share with me other public libraries in Cairo and how to get there, i will be very much appreciate your help. Thanks!

oh, by the way i live in Nasr City.

- Dar al kotob, it has 2 branches: 1 at the old part of down town at bab el khalq square and the other one at cornich el Nile the east side near Bulaq.

- Mubarak library at Zamalek.

- Maadi public library at new Maadi near the stadium.

I have a flash animation .. where I used few images. they are all set in library..

Now i updated the animation and new images used are large in size .. I have updated the library..

I i play the animation it shows the new images but cropped at old size .. I know I can reach to each frame and change the image size one by one for all but is there any aumoated way .. so that all library refereces are updated .. new images and new size.

best regards….

urgent :::

….
each time i’ve done that, i’ve changed it 1 by 1 with my little fingers
….
But I guess that you can create a script to show them automatically and to choose the size -and place- of the images
-> i mean : you let them in the extern library, and the script make them appear when the animation is playing.
some kind of movieclip content updating and objectlistener per frame……..
Something like that……

I need some books that I can’t find them. Some years ago I typed some books which were supposed to be transferred on CDs for student’s use in U.S.A libraries. I want to know is there a bibrary which gives such a service to public through internet.

Public Library? Sure. Many public Libraries in the US participate in a service known as ILL (Library Interloan). Ever heard of Worldcat? (http://www.worldcat.org/)

This service, provided by OCLC, allows Interloan of materials from libraries across the nation. The catch of the service is: we’re not MAILING it you. Dirty secret: If we mail stuff between libraries, we can take advantage of special "library rates" in the USPS that makes it cost effective to send a book from Boise to Tallahasse or whatever.

If you’re talking ONLINE READABLE books… it’s coming soon. Google as an e-Books project, and you can also try looking up Project Gutenburg (http://www.gutenberg.org/), amongst many.

I dont mind if its a freeware or shareware, 10 at a time or something like that, but I need something that I can extract my music from my ipod at the library, and I can only install some softwares, I cant find one that dosnt require admin rights, any ideas?

No free, I downloaded a program called ‘Cucusoft iPod/iTouch/iPhone to Computer Transfer’ to help me at http://www.dvdtoipodtouch.org/ipod-touch-to-computer-transfer.html
It is an iPod/iTouch/iPhone backup tool to help you easily copy / transfer all files from your iPod/iTouch/iPhone to PC.
It’s fast,easy and very wonderful. I think it is a good choice.You can download it to help you too.

The seven accredited schools are: School of Library and Information Studies at Dalhousie University, Halifax, Nova Scotia; Graduate School of Library and Information Studies, McGill University, Montreal, Quebec; Ecole de bibliotheconomie et des sciences de l’information, Universite de Montreal, Montreal, Quebec; Faculty of Library and Information Science, University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario; School of Library and Information Science, University of Western Ontario, London, Ontario; School of Library and Information Studies, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta; and School of Library, Archival and Information Studies, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, British Columbia (see Appendix A for information about these school and Appendix B for course content of the Canadian special library courses). Each of these schools has different emphases, different strengths, and a different approach to education for librarianship.

I have no clue how to sync my library to my iphone with the remote app. It gives me that number and i have no idea what to do with it.

You cannot sync. The application Remote, for the iPhone lets you control your itunes (as in change the song or video) from your iPhone whenever you are in the same wireless zone as your computer.

Hi;

I am looking for complete online libraries like Google Book. As you know, Google Book provides a very complete collection in a broad range of subjects from literature to computer to fiction and etc. I’ m more interested in IT and Computer science books, especially the text (reference) books which are used in the university level.

Thank you

ask your local library

can a non-student get in?

It depends on the library. At Robarts, you can get in the doors, but not into the stacks. To get into the stacks you need to be a UofT student, alumni, or a visiting scholar, that is, faculty or graduate student at another university. The public can access the collections, but not directly.

The college libraries are more easy going and set their own rules. Check the individual library’s policy to see. Below is a link to the library listing.

Is there a search engine that will let me enter a book title and scan all the public libraries in the US to see if any of them have it? University libraries as well?

The Gutenberg Project has tens of thousands of books available for free download in pdf

If, by chance, there is something you can’t find there… then one of my English professors gave me this site, which is basically the same thing and was put together by the University of Pennsylvania:

But I would try the Gutenberg Project first. I think their collection is more extensive.

I’m trying to find a more reasonable public library for ebooks. New York library has ebooks I like but I live in Alabama and the cost would be 100.00 per year for a card – know any other web sites?
