Search tips:
- Try keywords like: humanities, writing, creativity, culture
- Search broad keywords because you're not searching the entire content of the e-book yet.
- In the Library catalog, to find only ebooks: narrow your search results by clicking on format --> electronic.
- Log in to ebooks with the same information you use to log into your school email.
