This special issue of JIME features chapter summaries and commentary directed toward the recently published book "Reusing Online Resources: A Sustainable Approach to eLearning" edited by Allison Littlejohn. The big frustration, of course, is that the book itself isn't online (and living in a small city, it's not like I can just pop out to the local bookstore and pick up a copy). But the summaries are quite good, and interestingly, are used to prime subsequent discussion of each of the chapters. Devotees of learning objects won't find a lot that's new here: the book is mostly an overview of current applications and issues. But that also makes it a good introduction to the field and a nice launch-point for further discussion.
