Book & eBooks

Books, both print and electronic, are primarily accessible through the library's online catalog and may also be in specific database collections.

Books

Use Melvyl to search for books or for e-books by keyword, author, title and other criteria.

E-Books

E-books are delivered from many different platforms. As possible, our priority is to purchase titles and collections from publishers and providers who allow perpetual access, unlimited users, and few restrictions, if any, on printing and copying.

E-Book Help

For assistance with e-books, contact a librarian by chat, phone or email, or request assistance at the second floor Library Services Desk.
