Can I read all the Ebooks on Springer Link?
The University subscribes to selected titles on Springerlink. To see what Ebook content you can access, scroll down to the bottom of the page and click Books, and untick the box "Include preview only content". There are almost 60000 full-text titles available. When you see the icon, this denotes a title where the content is not available through the University of Strathclyde subscription; you will be able to preview unowned content. If you want to access unowned content, check SUPrimo to see if it's available in print in the Library.
Searching and Browsing
To search the content, enter your search term into the search box, or you can choose to Browse, using the Discipline and Sub-discipline options. NB: ensure that you have limited the content to Books, as Springer Link includes journal articles.
Using Mobile Devices
Springer Link Books are downloaded as PDFs, so as long as you have a PDF reader installed on your device, you will be able to download to mobile devices using a number of PDF download tools.
Ebook format - PDF
When you click the book image or title you will be taken to the record on SUPrimo, from here you can open the link to the ebook.
