e-books

There is currently a problem linking to e-books directly from the library catalogue please use the e-book sites below to access our titles.

You can search the library catalogue to find links to a wide range of eBooks and free online reports. Alternatively RCN members have access to collections of e-books from NetLibrary and MyiLibrary. Going directly to the e-book sites allows members to search for words in the full text of all the RCN e-book collection:

Some e-books are for RCN members only and you will need to enter your membership number and password to read the full text online.

If you want to limit your search of the RCN library to e-books and e-reports only, go to the RCN library catalogue then:

  • select the down arrow next to the library box
  • select eLibrary
  • type author, title or subject into the search box
  • search catalogue
  • follow the link to the full text.

A step by step guide to using the the RCN e-books (PDF 244KB) [see how to access PDF files] is available on the Learning Zone.
