The Diversity and Social Issue collection consists mostly of EbscoHost e-books. There are a few ProQuest Ebook Central titles included as well.
It is easiest to read the books online in your browser.
One of the challenges for libraries purchasing e-books, is that publishers are very restrictive at to which titles are available on library platforms. Recently published titles are usually unavailable, and e-book titles cost 2-10 times than the print equivalents. E-books that individuals can buy for Nooks or Kindles aren't always available or affordable for libraries, so this collection is just a selection of titles to facilitate online access. If we don't have a specific e-book you would like to read, you can try seeing if it is available in one of our other e-book databases, or at your public library [insert link here]. We also tried not to duplicate titles already held in our print collections unless circulation data suggested an additional copy would be useful.
