Q. What are e-books?

Unlike traditional books, eBooks (electronic books) are portable, instantly accessible, and can be stored in large quantities on a single device.  All of our ebooks can be accessed from SouthernSearch.

eBooks often include features like:

• adjustable fonts
• bookmarks
• annotations
• built-in dictionaries
