Ship Resources: More than meets the eye


When you think of the library, what comes to mind? A place to check out books? A study space? A stop for Starbucks on the way to class?

It is all of that, and more!

The library can also be a gateway to a vast amount of online resources that have been chosen and purchased especially for you! For example, you know that the library has lots of books available for your use...
...but did you know that there are also thousands of ebooks that you can use through the library?

Here are some reasons to check out the ebook collections at Lehman Library:
  • We have over 50,000 ebooks available for your use!
  • We have ebooks in all subject areas, from History and English to Chemistry and Computer Science and everything in between!
  • You can use ebooks anywhere, from your dorm room to your classroom and even off-campus.
  • Many ebooks can be downloaded, and you can take notes and highlight digitally.

To find out more about ebooks at Lehman Library, visit our website or ask a librarian.


We want to hear from you!
