Online anytime

First Search, through GALILEO, offers a specific E-books index (Electronic Books) which includes records for more than 675,000 eBooks that have been cataloged by OCLC member libraries, including titles available from NetLibrary and other providers. Much of the electronic CTC collection is listed in the index.
Links to full-text content: Users can access Web links to full-text electronic book collections licensed by their libraries from NetLibrary and other providers and free resources that are available in the public domain from education, government, and commercial Web sites.

CTC has over 90,000 electronic books through NetLibrary, E-brary, Ovid, and Credo. Using the E-books index shows our books as well as other electronic books. Some may be available because they are government publications or in Google Books. Some are in licensed databases that we don't have access to. If we don't have access, check the Libraries link to see which library holds this resource. It might be a neighboring post-secondary institution. You may ask to use the resource as a guest in their facility!

This E-books index pulls together many electronic collections. Search and read to your hearts content.

You may get the password to use GALILEO from your Georgia librarian.
