OC Libraries

Over 14,800 of our 20,000+ eBook titles can be viewed on EBSCOhost eBooks.  This can be done in two ways:

1. Immediately in your web browser, as a pdf via the EbscoHost platform.  This is the recommended option. You can also save and print custom page ranges or chapters with this option. 

2. Downloaded offline onto your personal computer, tablet computer, eBook reader device, or smart phone. This requires creating a MyEBSCOhost account and downloading Adobe Digital Editions software or app on your device.

Many of our eBooks are co-owned by other libraries, and there are limited copies available for each title.  Only one person at a time from any library can view or download an eBook copy.  So you may occasionally not be able to view or download an eBook until another person has finished with it.  Think of a print book that is not available on the shelf because someone else is using it or has already checked it out.
