REL 1313: Ethics: Finding eBooks

To find eBooks, you need to use the Library catalog. The Library Catalog can be used to locate eBooks by title, author, and subject.  

Where is the Library Catalog?

On the main library page, select Books & More, then enter a search term in the search box.

Searching the Library Catalog

Once you have clicked on the Books & more tab, you can type in your topic in the search box, as is shown below.

Then you click on the Search Button to the right of the search box.

The search results page then displays. What is shown below is a part of the results page.

On the results page, the print books will display along with the eBooks.  In this example above, the first book is a physical book on the third floor.  The second two books are eBooks. The book that I will choose will be number 17, Ethics.  Go to the next box to find out what to do next.

When searching in the Library Catalog, the eBooks will appear along with the print books.  However, an eBook looks a little different, as you can see from the example above.

When you click on the link Available via EBSCO eBook Collection, it will take you to the E-Book. You can now do the following:

• You can read the entire e-book online without checking it out.
• You can select and Print out selected pages of the book
• You can select and save selected pages from the book
• You can select and e-mail selected pages from the book
