Finding Books in Library OneSearch
Kresge Library has a large collection of circulating books, but we also have access to digital copies of many items in our collection (otherwise known as "ebooks"). Although not all titles have both a print edition and a digital edition, Library OneSearch will be able to tell you what access options are available for any given title.
In Library OneSearch, enter the title you are looking for in the search bar - for example, Jules Verne's novel 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. The search results listing will show both print and electronic options for this title, depending on what's available.
To narrow down the results to show only books in print (i.e., physical books), click on “books” in the upper filter menu at the top of the results page (red box), and then click the "Apply" button.
Print items matching that title will be displayed in the results list, with the item location listed within each record.
To narrow down the results to show only digital books you can read on your device (i.e., ebooks), click on “ebooks” in the upper filter menu at the top of the results page (red box), and then click the "Apply" button.
Items matching that title will be displayed in the results list, with the access options listed within each record (red box). Click on the access options to learn how to read the book online.
