Educational Assistant

Resources for students in the Educational Assistant program.

In this section of the guide, you will find a wide variety of online/electronic books to be supplementary and reference resources for your classes. For physical books, have a look down the page where specific subject call numbers are identified. You can then visit the library to look for items on our shelves that are labelled with those numbers.

How to access eBooks

Using NorQuest Library databases, students can download portions of ebooks from Ebook Central and EBSCO onto their devices. Below are the step by step guides for downloading ebooks. Some ebooks need an additional software called Adobe Digital Editions to open on your computer - these books have an access period of three weeks.

Please note that due to copyright legislation, you are unable to download copies of entire books for ongoing personal usage.
