Business Studies: Books & E-books

Our Inter-Library Loan service can get articles, books and other publications not held in MIC Library from other libraries. For more information about this service, please click here

Use the Catalogue to search for books or the SEARCH ALL tab on the library home page.

When you search, note the following:

• Location: Is the book in Limerick or Thurles? In some cases we have the same book in both campuses so make sure to check
• Shelfmark/Call Number: This is the Dewey number followed by three letters to help you find the book on the shelf
• Status: Is the book available on the shelf or is it on loan? Remember if a book is on loan, you can reserve it using your MIC log-in details.

E-BOOK CENTRAL

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.

Platform 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)

The Library offers a Click & Collect service alongside our normal borrowing service. For more information about this service please see here.

For information on how many items you can borrow and for how long please click here.

Books on Business Studies are held on the first floor.

The map below shows the layout of the library. The Shelfmark box above will also help you find what you are looking for.
