Thanks for the reading list!

Thank you all, glad I asked.  I was under the impression that the longer the eyepiece the greater the magnification!  The opposite seems counterintuitive to me.  I really do have a lot to learn.  Could someone please recommend reading material?  I don't even know what I don't know, yet.

I've recently acquired a Celestron  8" with Plossl 6, 8, 13, 15, 25 and 32mm lenses.  My question is what lense(s) should I use while I'm getting acquainted with this instrument?  I would like to use them all eventually but for now I need to focus on just being able to locate objects with precision and efficiency.

Thanks
