Arts and Humanities e-books
The library provides access to thousands of Arts and Humanities e-books you can read on your own device anywhere, anytime.
You can access all e-books via Arsca, or browse or search them directly at the service providers’ platforms.
- Ebook Central includes over 180,000 e-books from several fields of science. The collection has been acquired as a bundle and therefore includes a lot of books from other fields than Arts and Humanities. You can search the collection based on e.g. topic, author or keyword, but also browse separate collections. E.g. Fine Arts collection includes almost 9000 e-books.
- Ellibs Library service includes mostly Finnish e-books. Uniarts collection was introduced only recently and currently includes over 30 e-books mostly in Finnish language. New books are added to the collection.
- EBSCO Ebook Collection currently includes 31 e-books from the fields of arts, education, philosophy and social sciences.
You can read e-books on your browser with your Uniarts username, or download e-books to your own device, a tablet or an e-book reader. To download e-books from Ebook Central, Ellibs or EBSCO, you need an Adobe ID and a reader software, such as Adobe Digital Editions, compatible with your device. You can read Ellibs e-books also in Ellibs app (Android, iOS). Read more about downloading e-books and TOS of electronic materials from the library guide.
Don’t forget to check the Bloomsbury Arts and Humanities and applied visual arts collections which are on test use until May 31. Open Access e-books can be discovered via DOAB or OAPEN, or – like all other library materials – with a single search in Arsca.
