Cut and paste to include quotes in a paper rather than retyping every word. Print up your favorite quotes in interesting fonts to decorate your locker or notebooks. Then print the pages as a just-because gift. Copy passages to include in worksheets or tests. Print quotes in large type for an in-class game.
Some word processors can even check for readability, grammar, and other interesting attritbutes.
Even if you're an old-fashioned book lover, use the eLibrary to browse before you buy. If the first chapter has you hooked, pick up the paperback. If not, you've saved a little money. Upload an eBook into your PalmPilot or other digital organizer. The text files are readable by any device, and you can read afew pages whenever you have down time during the day.
