A staple of research, these resources are often good for getting a basic idea of a topic or field.  However, they can quickly become outdated as research continues.  For technology and medical fields, any information found in an older book should be cross-referenced with a newer journal or creditable online source.

Since not all books go through the same editorial process before publication, most aren't peer-reviewed. They can still be good scholarly sources, though

 

The Library Services eBook Collection consist of titles for different subjects across all programs (as well as some casual reading titles for your downtime!). You can access these eBooks wherever and whenever you need. The library's eBooks are provided by a variety of suppliers and are available on different platforms, each with different rules and policies on loan period, download, printing and the number of simultaneous users.
