E-books: Collections & Access: Downloading, platforms, and specifications

Downloading & printing

Users with iOS devices (iPad, iPhone, etc) and Android devices (Galaxy Tab, Google Nexus, ASUS Transformer) who want to read E-books offline should follow these steps:

  1. Download the Bluefire Reader app
  2. Start the app
  3. In the app, sign up for (or sign in with) your Adobe Digital Editions account

Windows 8 RT and Kindle devices cannot install Adobe Digital Editions and the Bluefire Reader and thus cannot download E-books that require that software (EBL, Ebrary, EBSCO, etc.).

Note: "Downloading" in the chart below refers to downloading an E-book to read off line. All E-books below can be read while online through the mobile web interface.
