How do I download ebooks?
Answer
A deceptively simple question with an infuriating answer: it depends on the book.
For EBSCO ebooks (most of our ebooks are from EBSCO), watch this tutorial video: https://youtu.be/nTueaOwvCiM and note that you will need to log in with your SBC credentials to access EBSCO off-campus, then log in to a myEBSCO account that you will need to create, and (usually) install or log in to Adobe Digital Editions.
For ProQuest Ebook Central (another large source of our ebooks), watch this tutorial video: https://youtu.be/OTA8P0CzpSc and again, note that you will need to log in with your SBC credentials to access Ebook Central from off-campus and then log in to your ProQuest account, and log in to Adobe Digital Editions.
