McQuade Library's growing e-book collection expands access to our books by letting users search for, browse, and read our books from anywhere on campus or beyond. An e-book is an electronic copy of a book. Sometimes e-books are literal copies of the print book and other times the e-books offer additional functionality.
This guide provides information on how to make the most of our e-book collections. If you have any suggestions or comments about this guide, contact a McQuade librarian.
