Saving an ebook to read later

Intro to eBooks

We have over 100,000 ebooks that can be read on campus computers, and most of them can be downloaded onto a mobile device.  Passwords are required if you are off-campus, and are your InsideNC username and password.

If you are using a wireless laptop or iPad on campus, then go to the Wireless on Campus tab; otherwise the ebooks will not display.
