iebrarylogo

The UBC Library is currently running a trial of the eBrary eBook platform.

Two collections are available through this site: eDuke (Duke UP eBooks) and Academic Complete. eDuke includes approximately 900 eBooks from Duke University Press, while Academic Complete provides access to 37,000 books across 20 subject areas from a number of publishers, including Springer. A complete list is available.

Users have basic access to each eBook through the quick-view feature. More advanced features such as copying material from the eBook and using the InfoTools menu to link out to related resources are available through the eBrary reader. A link to the eBrary reader appears at the top of each eBook screen.

Feedback can be sent via a link on the trial information page at: http://resources.library.ubc.ca/1484/
