Different titles of eBooks come with different licensing arrangements. Some are limited to 1-5 concurrent users, while others are unlimited. If you plan to use an eBook in class, be sure to check out the limitation on numbers of concurrent users. Here are 2 examples (Ebsco eBooks and eBookCentral). Once you have found a title in the duPont-Ball catalog, click the title or "view book" and search for availability or concurrent users.
