Does the library have eBooks?

Answer

The library has a wide selection of academic eBooks, which can be searched in our discovery search on the library homepage. Depending on the vendor that owns the eBook, you may only be able to view them on a computer screen and print a certain number of pages.  Others may be allowed to be downloaded onto devices like a Kindle.

The library does not have many popular fiction and nonfiction titles as eBooks.  However, the Saratoga Springs Public Library offers an Overdrive system providing popular titles that can be downloaded onto most devices and includes audiobooks. Skidmore students are eligible for public library cards, since you will need an account to borrow an eBook from Overdrive.
