Q.  How do I use or read an eBook?
A.  After deciding to browse an eBook online, read through the table of contents on the left side of the screen to help you choose where to begin. One may also plunge right in and read sections of the book, page by page, using the arrow keys.

Q.  What else should I know about eBooks?
A.  Once a patron account is created, using eBooks is easy.  Here is more helpful information:

• A built-in American Heritage English Language dictionary provides definitions.   An audio component pronounces the word out loud for students. To see the definition, highlight any word in the text and then click on the dictionary tab on the left side of the screen.
• The text portion of the screen can be enlarged by clicking on the "Hide Tools" button at the top.
