Answer

There are over 1 million ebooks available in the library and our new online catalog makes it easy to search for online books. There are many different vendors who offer IT ebooks (EBL, Access Engineering, The Association for Computing Machinery Digital Library, CRC-InfoSECURITYnetBASE, SpringerLink Computer science, and more!) but the best way to search our catalog for ebooks is to go directly to Catalyst (https://catalyst.library.jhu.edu), type is your key word(s)/ search phrase (ex. IT, Computer Science, etc.) and check the box below the search filed which says ", then select "Search". Here is a quick and fun video on how to search Catalyst for ebooks: http://youtu.be/GRag-X2TFjk

If you need any additional help with ebooks (downloading, transfer to ereader, etc...) please feel free to email me directly at kbernet2@jhu.edu. Good luck with your research.
