Longwood University Library

The Greenwood Library now has access to over 11,000 e-books. Most of these are in the recently acquired NetLibrary Shared Collection V, which includes full-text versions of over 6,000 recent books such as reference works, scholarly monographs, literature and fiction as well as 3,400 titles from Project Gutenberg, BiblioBytes and other publicly-accessible digital libraries. Many of the NetLibrary titles are listed in the online catalog; all of the NetLibrary e-books can be searched by keyword, subject, author, title or full-text from the NetLibrary database interface.
