Ebooks

LISS subscribes to several ebook collections. This means you have 24-hour access to a wide variety of titles from any computer with an internet connection.  Ebooks also allow you to search within the text, make notes and build your own collection of favourites.  You will need your University of Cumbria username and password to access ebooks from off campus.

    You can search for ebooks in two ways

  • Use the catalogue to search all of the ebook Collections at once, for relevant titles.  Follow a tutorial
  • Search each ebook collection individually, to make more complex searches of the content.
