Students are allowed access to up to 7 books. If you do not find your textbook there, please work with your instructor to determine if it is available through Cengage eBooks that is offering students free access to 14,000 ebooks for the remainder of this semester. For anatomical models, calculators, and other materials held in your Library’s Reserve Collection, please contact your instructor for assistance.
