Library of the Future 3 is a reference library with over 3,500 complete and unabridged books, stories, plays, poems, religious and historical documents, and children’s classics. It also contains hundreds of illustrations and full motion video clips. Many of the greats are represented including works from Shakespeare, Tolstoy, Twain, Aristotle, The Bible, Emerson, Steinbeck, Poe and hundreds more of history’s most renowned authors.
One of the best features of Library of the Future is it's search capabilities. The entire library can be searched by title, author or words and phrases. You can also bring up a number of texts from an age, era or century. Once you have located the text you want, you can search for themes by typing in a particular word, or you can search for a particular quote you want to check on. You can also compare and contrast different treatments of a particular theme by repeating the search for different authors. A split-screen feature enables you to view any two works side by side for easier comparison. For easy reference you can bookmark places you have already been.
You can customise font styles and adjust type size for easier reading. This last feature is excellent for people who have trouble reading small print. You can also print or save all or any portion of any work. This means that if you are using the library as a reference for an article, essay or speech, or just reading for pleasure you can have a saved reference or a hard copy of the text to take with you.
Library of the Future is a complete library for the whole family to use and enjoy, and for the researchers, writers and students. It's an invaluable resource.
