Using LOIS to find ebooks.
The Library Catalog (LOIS) can be used to find ebooks as well.
This may be the easier route if you are looking for ebooks by subject since all of the ebooks included in the collections above are also in the catalog.
In other words, you can search them all simultaneously using the catalog.
To do this, go to the Library Catalog (LOIS) and select Advanced Keyword search. You will see a series of drop-down menus. Select the one for Material Type and choose Ebooks from the menu. Otherwise, conduct your search as usual. The catalog will limit the results to ebooks only. |
