This is great! Can I just put the link to the High School collection on my school web page? Too many pages and links to click = no use by students.

NOTE: The new e-Book collections are now available in researchIT CT.  They are selectable in EBSCOhost, where they appear near the foot of the Choose Databases screen that appears when you open EBSCOhost.  They can also be accessed individually with the links in the bullet list above.



The e-Books are in PDF.  They can be read online or downloaded.  To download requires that the user have an EBSCO personal account (a Google account can be used to create an account and to and sign in to it), and an Adobe ID.  The downloaded title will then appear in, for example, Adobe Digital Editions or similar Adobe sanctioned app.  For information about the collections, see: http://ebsco.libguides.com/ebooks/home .
