eBooks From NetLibrary
The Daniel Boone Regional Library offers an online collection of 23,000 electronic books (eBooks) through a subscription to NetLibrary.
To use this service, you need to set up a free NetLibrary account at one of the DBRL libraries in Ashland, Columbia or Fulton. After you create an account, you can access eBooks from any computer with access to the Internet.
eBooks are books you read on your computer. Rather than checking out a physical book from the library and taking it home, you read these books while you are connected to the Internet. Most of the titles currently available are adult non-fiction or classic literature.
You can do keyword searching within a book, create bookmarks and make personal notes. You can print excerpts from your book and there is also a dictionary available (American Heritage, 4th ed.) complete with illustrations.
eBooks appear in the library catalog alongside traditional books and audio materials. The entries have a link to the NetLibrary site where you must log in.
