Kindles @ Wellehan Library
A new service for on-campus students delivers e-books instantly.
Writing a paper and can’t find the book you need in the library? Get an e-book instantly by borrowing a Kindle. No problem, no wait!
Here’s how:
- Work with a library staff member to search nearly 1 million e-books at Amazon.com to find the one you need. The e-book will be purchased and downloaded on the spot to one of six Kindles that Wellehan Library now owns.
- Borrow the Kindle for 3 weeks.
The fine print…
- E-books must be course-related.
- Textbooks and required readings are not included in the service.
