You can search for e-books using Easy Search or by going to the Library Catalog. Easy Search includes the Library Catalog, IDEALS, various e-book publishers, Google Books, and HathiTrust.

Subject libraries highlight specific e-book resources. For example, see the Grainger Engineering webpage for Safari Computer books, a robust database of titles focused on technology.

You can access e-books through the Library Catalog. 

Once in the library catalog, select 'Advanced Search' located on the right-hand side of the search bar.
