Ebooks

1. Cambridge University Press ebooks don't have limits on simultaneous users, so you should never get a busy signal.
2.  Look down the page for links to online chapters or chapter PDFs.
3. If you want to save the ebook as a favorite in your browser, save the Esearch page using instructions below. Bookmarking the web page after you have logged into the ebook might create a link that won't work correctly from off campus.
4. If you have trouble logging in, the most common problems are:
   a. You may need to set your browser to accept cookies.
   b. If your EMU NetID password has expired, you may need to change your password.
5. You may be able to get immediate help using the ebook from Ask a Librarian chat.

If you are on campus, you don't need to login to access a Cambridge University Press ebook. If if you are off campus, you will be asked to log in with your EMU NetID.  If you aren't asked to log in, there may be an issue with the link you have to the book. In that case, try searching for the ebook in E-search (use ebook search provided below).

If you are asked to log in and your login doesn't work, you may need to update your NetID password (see Help with Online Access Problems below).

The EMU Library has only a small collection of Cambridge ebooks. If you are searching for ebooks on a topic it's usually better to use the Esearch box above which searches all of the library's ebooks. 

One of the few reasons to search the Cambridge collection directly is to find a very recently acquired book that has not yet been cataloged. You can also view the list of the Cambridge ebooks that EMU has acquired at this site.

You can find a stable direct link to a Cambridge ebook that will work from off campus, on the ebook page under the label DOI:
