Books are longer pieces of research or information, published either electronically or in print form. They are often good for background information or a more in-depth look at a specific topic. Some books may focus on one topic; others may be a collection of shorter essays or writings published as one volume.
Electronic books (ebooks) are available in these library databases. One advantage of ebooks is that you can read them online, on either a computer or a mobile device, without having to come to the library in person to borrow them.
