• Laptops will not be accepted if this asset tag is removed.
• Student understands that their abuse of the equipment loan privileges may also result in disciplinary action and the inability to borrow equipment in the future and that failure to return the equipment within the allotted time will be considered theft of CCCD property.

The library has thousands of ebooks for you to use.  Most of them can be found in the Library Catalog.  When you first do your search, all the print books, ebooks, and videos will be mixed together.

If you just want to see ebooks, after you do your search, look at the filters on the lefthand side of the screen:

• Under Availability, click Available Online
• Under Resource Type click Books

Different books come from different vendors, so the loan rules will vary. When you are off-campus, you will need to log in to read the book.
