Using E-books

The library has purchased several hundred ebooks. Create an account to add books to bookshelves, highlight passages, and take notes. All ebooks are in CLICnet.

Using Netlibrary

Netlibrary is a collection of ebooks purchased two ways; by the state (these titles are found in all Minnesota libraries) and by UST.  All titles - state-wide purchases and UST-only purchases - are in CLICnet.

In order to use a UST-only Netlibrary book, you must register for a free account using this link.  If you do not register using this link, you will not be able to get the UST-only ebooks.  You will only get the state-wide purchased books.  For more help, go to Netlibrary's help page.

Using Ebrary

Ebrary is another ebook vendor.  All titles are in CLICnet and available to members of the UST community only. For help, go to Ebrary's help page.
