Ebooks

The Main Library has secured a trial subscription to Ebrary’s Academic Complete, a growing eBook collection that spans all academic subject areas.

The Ebrary site is easy to navigate. You can do a simple or advanced search by key word, author, title or publisher; create a Personal Bookshelf to save highlights, notes, and bookmarks; copy and print with automatic citations with hyperlink back to the source, among many useful features.

You will need to enable cookies on your browser and will be invited to download the Ebrary Reader on first attempt to get text. The site informs you about the browsers, their versions and other software Ebrary works with.
Trial ends January 7, 2008.

Other ebook titles are available via the NetLibrary collection. You may search an index of NetLibrary titles with links to publicly accessible ebooks, or you may limit your search to the Main Library Titles only. Please go to Ebooks. The Main Library's NetLibrary ebooks are also listed in the Library's catalogue.
