The Medical Library provides access to thousands of titles through our collection and our partnership with NEOMED. Our collection spans the healthcare disciplines, and OhioLINK's Electronic Book Center can connect you with limitless non-healthcare titles.
Check out our newest ebook titles and collections curated by topic. Jump to a section of interest using the grey tabs on the left side of the page or clicking on a subject of interest below.
Visit any of the links below to find even more ebooks through the library. The lists on this page are just the tip of the iceberg!
We use a book selection guide called "Doody's Core Titles" to inform our collecting. Librarian volunteers act as selectors for this list, identifying the best-of-the-best across the healthcare disciplines. Core titles are of superior quality, authoritativeness, scope, utility, and value. Some are even designated as essential buys for every library! We've used this list to handpick some of the best ebooks we have in our collection.
