The Library Catalogue, OneSearch, is the primary portal to access e-books.

For example 1984 by George Orwell.  If you were to search for 1984, from there on the left-hand "Filter my results" section select the following:

  • Limit to Full-Text Online (if you need ebooks only)
  • Resource Type - Books

This will retrieve all e-books with 1984 in the title.

 

 

  • If you were to choose the first item on the list and then select the "Available Online" link which will take you to the Full record.
  • For print books, you will be provided with the Call Number.

Then under View Online - Try a Link Below! - Select from one of the options. This will take you to our Proxy (if you are off-campus) where you will need to sign in with your CUNYCredentials-firstname.lastnameNN@login.cuny.edu. For more information, please review the Remote Access FAQ.

Use the Advanced Search Option in OneSearch to retrieve books. Limit your search to Title, Author, Material Type, Subject, and Publication Date if known. Example, Emma, Jane Austen, Books.

Once you do so, select SEARCH. The can then be further filtered by using the Filter My Results feature on the left-hand pane and selecting Full-Text Online

  • This will only retrieve e-books. Do not select the Full-Text Online option for print books.

 

Should you have any questions, please complete the Electronic Resources Access Form.

A-Z Database List provides a list of all of our major e-book collections. Once on the A-Z Database List, toggle to Database Types - E-Books. You may select the e-book collection of your choice.
