How To

Use Ebooks

E-Books at Loras College

This guide will help you to search, find, and download electronic books. In addition, it will also direct you to information about e-reader software, audio books, uploading e-books to e-readers, and how to cite e-books. An e-book, also known as an electronic book or digital book, is defined by The Oxford Dictionary of English as "an electronic version of a printed book." An e-book is also able to exist without any printed equivalent.

Most e-books are available to read online, while printing, copying, downloading, and audio features vary.
