e-Books: e-Books in the A-Z List

A guide to finding and accessing e-Books at Gateway Seminary Library.

A-Z and e-book list description

The A-Z Journal & eBook list is a list of almost all of the digital journals and e-books that Gateway Seminary has access to. If you are navigating from the Library home page, you will find the link under Quick Links. On a desktop, this will be on the left hand side of the screen. On mobile, this section is at the bottom of the page, but there is an option to skip to Quick Links at the top of the page.

By default, you will be taken to the Browse tab, where you can browse the lists alphabetically by title.

Collections are generally all of the items, journal and e-books, of a specific type (all the same format, or the same topic), provided by a specific vendor. That might not be helpful for you. In this case, we are searching just for eBooks, so we would click the eBooks button so we can browse the eBooks by title.

 

 

A more flexible option might be to click the Search tab and type in the title, or the ISBN, of the book you are looking for.

Take note that you can modify the search type in the drop-down. There are three options:

Match all words: searches the titles for all words in the search bar, in any order.
Match exact words: searches for the exact phrase in the search bar.
Match any words: searches the title for any of the words in the search bar, in any order.

For this example, we will search with Match exact words.

 

 

When we use the search term: Bible in History, with a search type: Match exact words, we get a single result. This screen shows that we have access to the full text of this eBook through EBSCO. 

 

Gateway Seminary gets access to eBooks through several different vendors and the access link name can change, but it'll (usually) get you where you want to go.

If you have any problems accessing a link, or a link takes you to the wrong resource, use the "Send Feedback" link at the bottom right hand side of the screen or contact us.
