A GLIMPSE INTO THE OPAC SYSTEM AT KDU...

Just for fun, I typed in 'football' into KDU's library book search system (as you do).

I got in return 1 (one) title. It was:

Flexibility Of Football Timetabling In Organization By Using Simulated Annealing.

I was going to say that I wouldn't waste my time taking it out but if I get 5 different people who post a comment about it, I will enquire about it and see if I can take a photo of the front cover...

P.S. Bert & Sam: I did put 'Basketball' & 'Rugby' into the system but it yielded no results.

Hmmm... very big words! What does annealing mean? Maybe you should check it out for our sakes. There has to be a reason why it's in the library, right :))

ANNEAL (verb): cool (metals, glass, etc) very slowly after heating, in order to toughen and temper.

I think that definition has been absolutely NO help at all in understanding what the book might be about.

I guess you'll need to read the entire book and enlighten the rest of your readers then ;p
