Finding E-Books

The library currently has access two e-book collections that are important to World History:

  • ebrary - which is a collection of electronic books from Canadian Publishers

You will need to check out of information on Off-Campus Access if you are trying to access these collections from home.

If you want to find hardcover books in our collection do not forget to check the library catalog.  If you want to get additional books not held in our collection and order them for free, try searching WorldCat or any Other Library Catalogs and then tell us to place an Inter-Library Loan. These items take a week or two to arrive, so place your request a few weeks before you need the item.

If you want to find Theses not in our collection, check out the Thesis Canada Portal for online Canadian Theses.  They are also substantive.

NOTE: Most library catalogs can be searched without authentication.  The one exception is Worldcat, so check out our Off-Campus Access Help if you want to search Worldcat from home.  The same applies for E-Books which will also require you to be authenticated.
