Hi Carole (and everyone)


I can see that there are good points about both.  With the CD there is
the fact that it takes up almost no space (but would I lose it?)  Just
printing off the prickings would be great, no scanning or photocopying.
But even if you could blow up the illustrations you can't use a
magnifying glass on a screen and I like to have a good look.



On the whole I think I prefer the book, there is something to get hold
of and if you need to look at it while you're working it's there right
beside you.  I think that if you need to print off bits so that you can
refer to them, well, you might as well buy a book.



I work in an academic library and you would think that with all the
computer resources, data bases, web sites etc that are now available we
wouldn't be buying as many books, but that isn't the case.  I don't
think that there's anything to beat a book, but I guess I'm biased.
