Faculty Resources & Services

A guide for faculty regarding Library Resources and Services for them.

Ebooks on Ebsco

The library has access to many resources via Ebooks on EBSCOhost.  Some Ebooks on EBSCOhost may be read by only one person at a time while others have unlimited use.  

There are several options for linking to resources depending on how you wish to incorporate a resource into your class. Options include Link to the Entire Book and Link to a Specific Chapter or Section.


1. Link to the Entire Book

There are times when you want to link to an entire book either to alert students this a resource to utilize in research or that you want them to read in entirety. The best way to link to a book is through LCU DISCOVERY.
