eBooks

You can find many individual eBook titles by searching in FindIt@BhamDubai. To restrict your search:

It is important to remember that whenever you are accessing ebooks you need to use the sign in link at the top right of FindIt@BhamDubai to enter your University username and password to ensure that you get full access to all the resources. This proves to the suppliers of theses resources that you are entitled to use them. 

Yes, you can, but the same restrictions apply for eBooks as they do for print books. Individuals are permitted to print up to one chapter or 5% under the University's copyright licences signed with publisher organisations.

eBooks are different however in that they may be subject to Digital Rights Management (DRM) controls. DRM technology allows publishers to control and manage the usage of their eBooks, for example they can restrict the number of concurrent users and limit the number of pages a user can copy, print or download. As we purchase our eBooks from a variety of sources DRM will vary between each provider. Any restrictions to DRM are imposed by the eBook provider and not the Library. Once these restrictions have been met the provider will prevent you from printing or copying any further text.

See our copyright pages for further information.

There are a number of ebooks and ebook packages available which will be of interest to Business students. Below is a list of a few of them. To find more ebook collections for your area of study use the Databases option in FindIt@BhamDubai and filter your search by 'type'.
