Q. How do I download ebooks?

Ebooks that you download will be available to you for a limited time period. Those limits are set by the publisher.  See instructions below for each vendor.

Ebsco Ebooks

Note: If you have an available internet connection, you can read and view Ebsco ebooks online.  No need to download or create accounts -- just click the PDF.  If you don't see an "Access Now" button, click "Access Options" and then "PDF Full Text"

To download ebooks from Ebsco for offline reading, you'll need to create a free Ebsco account.  Further instructions are available below:

• Ebsco Ebooks User Guide - includes instructions for downloading ebooks
