Looking for eBooks?

 

 

While taking accelerated classes, eBooks are convenient and instantly accessible. 

 

If you need eBooks, OCLS can help!

 

You can find eBooks from one of the eBook databases or by limiting your search in OCLS QUICKsearch. 

 

Databases

 

On our homepage, under Find Your Book, you will find two eBook databases. Ebook Central™, and EBSCO eBooks. Both databases have a variety of subjects and Ebook Central™ has some classics and fiction books. 

Type your keyword, topic, or subject into the search box and browse the available ebooks.  

 

 

OCLS QUICKsearch

After you search by keyword, topic, or subject in OCLS QUICKsearch, you can limit your search results to eBooks only.

Starting with QUICKsearch is a good idea since it will search all the OCLS databases, including Ebook Central™ and EBSCO eBooks. 

 

If you have any questions about finding eBooks, contact OCLS by filling out the OCLS Request Form
