About ebrary

Ebrary is a collection of thousands of online full text books in a variety of subject areas. Full text content can be viewed and searched online and printed without charge after installing the ebrary Reader. You can also bookmark sections of the book, copy and paste text, and save sections for later reading if you have a free Ebrary account. Ebrary contains books from many academic and trade publishers in every subject.

System Requirements:
Ebrary Reader needed to view text. This free software works with your web browser to allow browsing, search, and other advanced features. The reader is available from the ebrary site for Macintosh or Windows workstations. The site will automatically detect your operating system and only offer the Ebrary Reader version relevant to your viewing workstation's operating system.

If you have a new Macintosh with an Intel Processor, please follow these steps until Ebrary programs a universal plug in (older Macs and PCs should work with the Ebrary Reader by itself):

1. Duplicate the Safari App., Name it Safari-PowerPC
2. Get info on it
3. Check the "Launch as PowerPC application"
Install the ebraryReader, Double-click Safari-PowerPC and all is back to
"normal".

You could also run a PowerPC version of FireFox.
