Finding Electronic Books

From on or off campus, you can search for electronic books in our library catalog at http://librarycatalog.uah.edu/.  You will recognize that they are electronic books because the call number will have EBOOK at the end, the location will be Internet, and in many cases you will see the term [electronic resource] in the title of the book.

To view the electronic book, you can click on the URL link in the bottom right corner.  This will take you to EBSCOhost's eBook collection (formerly NetLibrary) where you can view or download the book.

If you are off campus, you can also access EBSCOhost's eBook collection from any of the links provided in our research guides and log in using your Angel credentials or try our remote access gateway and select the Netlibrary Electronic Books link.  

If you want to limit your search results to only eBooks, you can do this by selecting "Electronic book" from the type dropdown list. 

Please note that not all electronic books are accessible through our library catalog!  Please check with a librarian if you are having trouble locating an eBook.
