You can still access and browse many online books and resources. Visit our Finding Books guide here. On the right side of the screen, you'll see search bar options for E-books specifically. You can use these search bars to search through Proquest Ebook Central, EBSCO, and CREDO. Try searching through multiple collections, meaning if you don't find what you're looking for in Proquest, try the same or a similar search with EBSCO or CREDO. 

You'll also see a link for CloudLibrary. This is a great resource if you're looking for your next leisure read, with many fiction and nonfiction titles available.

When you find an ebook you want to read, you'll have the choice of reading the book online through your browser or downloading a temporary copy that you can read using third-party software such as Adobe. This is optional, so if you don't want to download an ebook reader, try viewing it from your internet browser.

As always, if you have any more questions don't hesitate to contact us.
