Notes: ebrary eBooks the library owns are accessible directly from ebrary or from a link in the BOSUN record for each. You do not need to register to have your own ebrary account: one will be automatically created for you when you click on the Login button for the first time.  Important: be aware that when you login to ebrary to use personalized features such as your own bookshelf, you will be prompted with a PROXY login screen, even if you're on campus.

ebrary’s “reader” function is not supported under many browsers, including AOL's, MSN's, Netscape 6, Opera, and others, including ISP-branded browsers. ebrary works well without it. ebrary permits printing in 30 page increments up to 60 pages per user session. To print, right click on text, select "print" and indicate the pages needed.

Note of December 17, 2010: eBrary has changed its personalized account features. Users who set up ebrary personalized accounts before this date may wish to contact ebrary tech support at support@ebrary.com to have their  previous bookshelf contents merged with a newer "SSO" bookshelf account.  In your email, please provide your previous username and your new username and ask to have your bookshelves "merged". (To see your new username, log in and look in upper right of the screen.  Your new name will appear as "Logged in as...")
