FYI - Ebsco eBook users

As an EBSCO eBooks customer with a library registered through the EBSCO eBooks app, you should be aware that in late May 2018, EBSCO will be retiring the EBSCO eBooksmobile app. With EPUB files becoming increasingly advanced, EBSCO has invested in this format to provide a robust online and mobile experience. EPUB allows for reflowable text, display modification and increased compatibility with screen readers, so we are confident that the future of EPUB will provide the best user experience for our customers and your users. Since the current EBSCO eBooks app is not compatible with this advanced functionality, we have decided to re-evaluate our mobile offering.

For those who want to continue with an app experience, EBSCO eBooks are compatible with the Bluefire Reader or any other app supported by Adobe Digital Editions.

Visit the EBSCO Help site to see our guide for using EBSCO eBooks on mobile devices using Bluefire Reader.
