Search for books using the search box on the top right-hand side of the screen.

If you cannot access books please try again in 10 min. We have 6 licenses to Safari. This means 6 students can access this database at the same time.  Typically, after 10 min. you should gain access to the ebooks.

Call us and we will try to locate a relevant resource if you are unable to connect to Safari books.

You have access to TexShare that allows you to check-out books from other college libraries, for example, UTSA.
