A World Divided

The Fairy Princess Chronicles - Book 1

By: Cynthia A Sears

Elizabeth’s sixteenth birthday was fast approaching and for the daughter of the King and Queen of Elnara, kingdom of the fairies and elves, that meant that she would have to attempt the magical transformation that would change her from Lady Elizabeth into Princess Elizabeth, the Fairy Princess of Elnara and the most powerful fairy alive. As if that isn’t enough, Elizabeth discovers she is expected to select her future husband, the future king of Elnara, from amongst the eligible young lords attending her birthday celebration. During the celebration, she meets Lord Edric, from remote Castle North, who has more on his mind then just meeting the enchanting Fairy Princess. Put off at first by his casual, unorthodox personality, Elizabeth finds herself drawn to the charming, handsome Lord Edric. The pair is soon plunged into a mystery that will take them over the great mountains to the north and beyond, braving deadly dragons and more. Nevertheless, they must find the answers they seek no matter what the risk, or the Fairy race will be doomed to extinction.

Organizing Information in School Libraries

Basic Principles and New Rules

By: Cynthia Houston

Covering both classification and cataloging principles as well as procedures relevant to school libraries, this book provides a teaching kit for a course on this critical subject that includes content and practice exercises. A valuable resource for instructors in LIS programs who teach courses in cataloguing with an emphasis on school libraries, this textbook explains the nuts and bolts of classification and cataloging as well as the functionality of integrated library systems and how these systems critically serve the mission of the school. Author Cynthia Houston covers Web 2.0 and the social networking features of these systems as well as examining in detail the principles and procedures for subject classification using Sears subject headings or Dewey Decimal Classification using the Sears tool. This teaching tool kit addresses the cataloging of print materials, audiovisual materials, and electronic materials separately—but all within the specific context of the school library. It supplies a number of examples and exercises to reinforce the key concepts and skills as well as to demonstrate the real-world applications of learning concepts and procedures. Based directly on Houston's extensive experience in teaching classification and cataloging courses, the included content and practice exercises enable instructors to use this book for content, for instruction, and for providing student feedback.

A Jubilee Showboat Mystery

By: Cynthia Thomason

In the second of the Jubilee Showboat Mysteries, Gwen Barlow, her mother, brother and a cast of colorful performers face another murder mystery on the Jubilee Palace showboat. This time the Jubilee has stopped in Moss Hollow, Kentucky, hometown of the troupe's lead actress, Marianne Dresden. However, Gwen soon learns that the inginue's real name is Mary Alice Kobb, and she left her parents' cabin and a big secret behind when she ran away from the repressive river town run by the influential Diggers family. Gwen's hopes to avoid problems with the Kobbs are dashed when Mary Alice's coarse backwoods father, Shelby, is found dead on the Jubilee deck, strangled with a length of barbed wire. Sheriff Diggers orders the Jubilee to stay in port until the murder is solved. Gwen combs the town and countryside in search of clues so her beloved showboat can move on. While Mary Alice and other members of the Jubilee family are suspects, Gwen discovers that several people in Moss Hollow, including Shelby's own wife and sons, had reasons for wanting to see the unpleasant farmer done in. Gwen must deal with small-town prejudice, an overly zealous country preacher who takes a fancy to her, and a crude moonshiner who once courted Mary Alice. Luckily, she still has the handsome showboat captain, Carson Stockwell, on her side. Before the murder is solved, Gwen is granted a miraculous gift far beyond her wildest dreams that will change her life forever. But she almost loses this chance for happiness when she faces a horrifying end at the hands of the Moss Hollow killer.Cynthia Thomason and her husband reside in Florida.
