I heard I can buy a discounted textbook through the Library?

Answer

This is generally not the case, as there are very few items that are sold by the Library. However, in some cases ebooks that are accessible to our students and faculty can be purchased at a discounted rate through the ebook provider. This is not common - SpringerLink is the only vendor that does this, though it's widely offered on many of their titles.

Important: To see this offer, you must access the ebook through the Library Catalog and with a campus connection to verify your status and for the offer to appear.

 

Example:

  1. Click to view this book's catalog record: Intraoperative Neurophysiological Monitoring 
  2. Scroll down to the View Online area and click the link to Springer eBooks.
  3. Enter your NetID and password if prompted.
  4. Now from the SpringerLink site, you can view the full book online, download in full, and even buy at a discounted rate. Find the discounted purchase offer in the upper-right corner.
