Where in the Library?

Books are arranged by subject using the Dewey Classification System. This system arranges books by subject. Each book is assigned a shelfmark number which is a series of numbers followed by letters. The number identifies the subject and the longer the number the more specific the subject is. This number can be found on the spine of the book.

Finding Books on the Catalogue

eBooks

eBooks are books in digital format that can be read on a computer, tablet or mobile device and give full-text access to academic material.

They are available 24/7 via the library website and are accessible on and off-campus.

Most of the eBooks available through MIC library are from a platform called eBook Central.

There are two options available on this platform:

  • read the book online (there is more functionality with this option)
  • download on a 1 day or 2 day loan (you will need to have the Adobe Digitial Editions software downloaded on to your device in order to do this). Ebooks that are downloaded will automatically disappear from your device once the due date has expired.

Features:

  • Save books to your bookshelf
  • Share the link to the ebook
  • Get a citation for the book
  • Make notes (Please note that this option is only possible by selecting the 'Read Online' option)
