eBook & eAudiobook Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes

Written on: July 26th, 2011 in Blog Posts

You may have noticed our eBook and eAudiobook sites have changed recently.  Several months ago EBSCOhost purchased Netlibrary and the transition is now complete.

You’ll still have access to the same great titles, but getting them is a bit different:

  • Want a quick intro?  View or print these help sheets?
  1. Searching for eBooks help sheet
  2. Downloading eBooks help sheet
  3. Searching and downloading eAudiobooks help sheet
  • Want more in-depth information?  Check out these tutorials:
  1. eBooks & Audiobooks on EBSCOhost Search Tutorial
  2. eBooks on EBSCOhost Downloading Tutorial
  3. Audiobooks on EBSCOhost Downloading Tutorial
  • Adobe Digital Editions (ADE) is required for eBook downloading.
    A free download from Adobe is available here.
  • Media Center will be retired. A new version of Download Manager will be needed for Audiobook downloading. The first time you download an Audiobook, you will be prompted to download a new version of Download Manager.
  • Create a My EBSCOhost account
  1. If you’ve never used EBSCOhost, you will need to create a new account. The process is easy and step-by-step instructions may be found here.
  2. If you have an existing My EBSCOhost account, your existing account will support eBooks & Audiobooks on EBSCOhost.

Happy downloading!
