The Marymount Library has over 25,000 print titles in our collection, and more than 75,000 eBooks. Whether you choose print or digital, it's really your reading choice. But note that (1) there are different titles in each collection so there is value in using both and (2) there are limits to downloading and printing ebook content.

eBooks are available through our eBrary search engine. You can also search our main catalog, but to locate eBooks you will need to take an extra step and narrow your search results down to "ebooks" using the filtering tools on the left-hand side of the search results page.

To search for books, begin with your general topic overview (e.g. "outdoor appreciation") and then add a more specific focus (e.g. "mountaineering," "eco-tourism"). Adding a focus  makes your search results more manageable.

To access Advanced Search, start typing your search terms and then select  when it appears on the right of the page.
