Thousands of Ebooks available: Ebrary trial

The 30-day trial of the Ebrary 'Academic Complete' Electronic Books collection commenced on Monday 24th April and I would welcome your comments about its ease of navigation, relevance/currency of literature...

Subject areas covered include coaching, informatics, mental health, nursing, sport & exercise medicine/science etc

To access the books, you need to use an 'Ebrary Reader'. This reader enables various powerful research utilities. More information: http://www.bath.ac.uk/library/news/ebrary.html


If you have problems viewing the eBooks, take a look at the Ebrary Reader Plugin page or contact me and the Library will arrange a demonstration of the application for you and your colleagues.


To test all the functions of the resource you can create a 'Personal Bookshelf' in order to save useful titles, store annotations and sections of highlighted text.
