eBooks at the Health Library

eBooks offer you a great way to access our collection. They are available anytime and you don’t need to carry them home.

Most of our ebook collection is available via Library Search. You can search for a title or topic and ebooks will be returned in your search results. eBook entries will be highlighted with a link icon and the text “Available Online”. See the example below: the book “Pass the PSA” is available both as a physical book in the Health Library exam collection and online.
