Beginning on the OU Libraries home page, click the “Advanced Search" link just below the search box.
On the Advanced Search page, use the search filters in the middle of the search page to enter your search terms and specify which fields to search (Any field, Title, Subject, etc.)
In the Material Type dropdown menu on the right, select "Books". This will limit your results to books. In the next screen we'll add a filter for online-only.
After setting your search criteria, click the "SEARCH" button in the bottom right to run your search.
On the search results page that comes up, find the "Availability" filter in the left-hand filter panel and select "Available online."
Your search results should now show only electronic books. Click on the title of the book to see more information about it or click on the green "Available online" link to be taken to the access link for the full text of the book.
Once you've clicked through on the access link you should be able to read or browse the electronic book.
If you can’t find an electronic book or have any other questions, you can always Ask Us.
