Try an E-Reader (Pilot Project)

Would you like to borrow a Kindle or an iPad to do a bit of light reading? If so, you will want to place a request to borrow one of ten pre-loaded devices from College Library.

In order to place a request, simply complete the E-Reader Request form. College Library staff will contact you when your preference (or first available) for either device is available. At this time, the e-reader devices are only available for a two-week loan period, without renewal (although you can place another request).

Please note that due to the popularity of this service, there will likely be a waiting period. The e-books currently available on the reader devices were selected to satisfy recreational reading interests; the catalog of titles can be viewed at Library Thing.

As a pilot project to explore building a collection of popular e-books, College Library also invites undergraduates to suggest new titles to add to this e-book collection (recommendations can be submitted with the request form).

For more information, see the E-Reader Overview.
