E-Books: Finding and Using Electronic Books

How to search

There are a number of different places to find and access e-books. You can search for e-books through any of the links below. Enter the search words (for example, the title of the book or keywords on what you want the book to be about) in the search box to find the desired e-book.

Search for E-Books in the Library Catalog

IUCAT does not contain e-books themselves or other content.  It contains links to e-books and other resources in addition to call numbers for print books. IUCAT is a great place to start your search!

NOTE: Occasionally there will be an e-book or streaming video with a normal looking record in IUCAT, but when the link is followed, a "0 results" screen appears like the one below. This happens when the library loses access to a title we previously had, but the record in IUCAT has not been updated yet. If that happens, fill out our help form above.

E-Book Collections - General

The two resources below contain full-text e-books.  If you open the e-book in the resource, you can read the e-book online and/or download it.

More specialized e-book collections

The e-book collections listed below are more specialized.  Not all of them can be downloaded; some can only be read online.
