eBook Access Tips & Tricks
- Use the email feature to email yourself a specific chapter of an eBook that you are using. The chapter will show up in your email as a PDF file.
- You may print 30-60 pages from an eBook by using the print feature.
- Some eBooks can only be opened by one person at a time. If you open this book on a school computer, and then try to access it again on your laptop, it will tell you it is "in use" and cannot be opened. If the book you are wanting is "in use" please check back in about 30-60 minutes, to allow for check-in time.
