Downloadable Audio & eBooks

 

What are ebooks?

An eBook is an electronic version of a printed book. The Library makes electronic books, downloadable audiobooks, and downloadable music available from five sources: NetLibrary eBooks, Northern California Digital Library/Overdrive Download Center, Safari Computer eBooks, Tumblebooks for Kids, and the Gale Virtual Reference Library.

How do I find them?

All downloadable audio and eBooks can be found in the Library Catalog. Search for them just as you would any other library materials--by title, author, subject, or keyword. You may also limit your search by selecting "ebooks" from the "material type" dropdown.

Browse the categories in the left sidebar to get more detailed information on how to use a specific type of electronic resource.
