Hi Faculty ,

The library currently has over 1400 eBooks available to be downloaded. In addition, the library will be experimenting with a 2 month trial of Ebsco host’s eBook Academic Subscription Collection of over 160,000 titles, in mid-October.

The library has created a short tutorial to demonstrate how to download an eBook from Ebsco. Please be sure to create an Ebsco account and download the necessary reader for your particular device (desktop, tablet or Kindle). Unfortunately, if you are using the new Windows’ Surface tablet, there are currently some compatibility issues but we are looking for a work-around.




Once the eBook Academic Subscription Collection is available, please investigate the content and provide the library with feedback regarding your impressions.

Feel free to contact the Library if you need assistance.

  1. This is great, thanks Gary. I was able to download and view on my office Mac. But I am still not sure how to view these e-books on my iPad. ??
