New Ebooks added to library catalog

Almost 4500 new e-book titles covering a wide variety of subjects are now available in the library's online catalog. All of these titles are from our ebrary collection, and many of them are recently published books as well.

Now that these books are listed in our catalog, you will be able to find them by doing a regular book search. Accessing e-books is easy: just look for the link titled "An ebrary electronic book accessible through the World Wide Web; click to view." E-books can also be accessed from off-campus, as described in our off-campus access tutorial.

Here are just a few of the new offerings:

Shooting up: counterinsurgency and the war on drugs, by Vanda Felbab-Brown (c2010)

Current prespectives on job-stress recovery, editors Sabine Sonnentag et al. (c2009)

Guided care: a new nurse-physician partnership in chronic care, by Chad Boult et al. (c2009)

On art, artists, Latin America, and other utopias, by Luis Camnitzer; editor Rachel Weiss (c2009)

Genomes and what to make of them, by Barry Barnes & John Dupré (c2008)


If you want to limit your search to only e-books, you should search from inside e-brary for best results.

Library Web Services Downtime

Starting Friday (3/26) at 6:00 PM to Sunday (3/28), some of the services on the Library website might not be available or fully functional. This is due to the Chancellor's Office’s relocation of computer servers which provide search functionality to all CSU campuses. Services that might be affected include

• The All 23 CSU Library Catalog
• Cross-database access to full-text articles located in other databases, such as:
  • The "Find it at CSUDH Lib" button
  • The "Click HERE to to get a copy from CSUDH Library, Or make an InterLibrary Loan (ILL) Request." Button
• The Inter-Library Loan form's auto-population features.
• Access to our article databases through Google Scholar

Note that full text access to articles will still be available during this time if they are in the database you are currently searching. You may experience difficulty switching between databases in your search, however.
