Finding Resources from the Library: eBooks

Use this guide to find resources in the library and online for class, projects, and fun.

Books and eBooks are exactly the same, except one is a physical book and the other is in a digital format.

How do I find an eBook? 

eBooks are available through several sources. They are available for free and immediately.

If you want to download an e-book to a portable reader (instead of reading it online), the portable reader must be compatible with Adobe Digital Editions (link below). Follow this link if you want to download an eBook to a KindleFire (link below). EBSCO also provides directions to save or print eBook pages as a PDF file (link below).
