  • To search for ebooks, use the WNCLN catalog's advanced search screen and limit the material type to "EBOOKS." This will allow you to search for ebooks from all of our ebook vendors.
    NOTE: As with any of our subscription databases, you will be asked to provide your name and Banner ID before accessing the library's ebooks if you are off-campus.
