The eBooks Library Resource Guide provides more information about finding and using eBooks in the CSU Library collection.
The Library has a substantial and growing collection of eBooks that are ideally suited for the provision of readings.
Access and use of eBooks is often limited by publisher imposed digital rights management (DRM), and eBooks in the library collection should not be considered an alternative to student purchase of prescribed texts.
Contact the Library and check the suitability of an eBook licence, prior to use for the provision of a required reading. Publishers may:
Create links to selected eBooks or eBook chapters for use in Interact2 course sites, providing convenient 24/7 access to readings.
Submit a request for new eBook titles to be added to the Library collection.
Contact a Faculty Liaison librarian for further information about the use of eBooks in teaching.
