eBooks

eBooks, also called electronic books, digital books, full-text books, or online books, can be accessed 24/7 from any location. 

eBooks allow one to search the full-text of the books, which can be both an advantage and a disadvantage.

LVC has access to over 300,000 eBooks.  The largest database of LVC eBooks may be found in EBSCO's eBook Collection.  Google Books provides access to over 40 million eBooks...but only a small percentage of these are full-view.  Full-view eBooks are in the public domain, meaning that they will be published prior to the 1920's.
