Accessing Ebooks
As an affiliate of Cleary University, you have over 350,000 ebooks at your fingertips! There are three main collections you can search:
The quickest and easiest way to use ebooks is to read them online. This means, you simply open the PDF (or other file type) and look at a specific chapter or page that interests you, flipping through the "page" just like a print book. Each book will offer you options to copy, download, or print a specific number of pages. See below for more information.
When you're reading an ebook online (as opposed to downloading the ebook) you will find information provided by the ebook publisher outlining how you may use the book: how many pages you can download or copy & paste, for example. (Each book will have unique permissions!)
