How to Find eBooks
You can search for eBooks in the library's online catalog or
you can search for them on netLibrary's web site.
Searching for eBooks in the Online Catalog
To find an eBook in the online catalog, do a keyword search for "netlibrary". If
you go to the Guided Keyword Search screen, you can combine an author search
for "netlibrary" with other keyword, title, or subject terms to find
eBooks of specific interest to you. Please ask one of the librarians
if you have questions about how to search the online catalog.
Once you find a netLibrary title in the online catalog, look at the full record
display for that title. The line labeled "Related URL" will have a link that will
take you directly to that eBook on the netLibrary web site.
Searching for eBooks in netLibrary
To search for eBooks on the netLibrary web site, you must either be using a computer
on Northern's campus or you must first create a personal netLibrary account
for yourself. (See netLibrary accounts for more information
on how to create a personal netLibrary account.)
Go to http://www.netlibrary.com. If you are
using a computer on Northern's campus you will automatically be logged in to Northern's
eBook collection. If you connect from off campus, you
will have to login to your personal netLibrary account before you can search Northern's ebook
collection. Then use keyword or advanced search options to find eBooks in the Northern
eBook collection.
