Reading E-Casebooks
Select a title from the list and follow that title's link to the EBSCOhost platform. Click the EPUB Full Text link in the left menu to view the e-book's contents and begin reading. Access from a Web browser is limited, so you may print, e-mail or save up to 50 pages, or download by chapter.
You do not need an account to read an e-book, but once an e-book is opened it is considered "checked out" and other users will not have access to it. Downloads are enabled for all library owned copies for a duration of 2 hours. Whether the library owns 1 copy or 3 copies, all reserve copies have the same 2 hour download duration. Continue reading the e-book from a Web browser, or follow the instructions below for full downloading and offline reading. A maximum of 3 simultaneous checkouts are allowed per user.
Downloading E-Casebooks
In order to download and read EBSCOhost e-books offline, you must have Adobe Digital Editions installed on your computer. You will also need to use Adobe Digital Editions to transfer an e-book to a supported portable eReader device. For step-by-step download instructions, visit the Downloading an eBook guide.

Can I extend or renew my eBook check out time?
No, eBook check out times cannot be extended or renewed for downloaded titles. However, if there are no Holds placed on the eBook by other users, you may check it out again.
