UPDATE: Unfortunately the Commonwealth E-Book Program has discontinued the contract with Axis 360. E-books and digital audiobooks are still available through the CEC via Robbins Library, as well as though the Boston Public Library e-card program. The AHS Media Center also collects audiobooks which circulate on iPods and nonfiction and reference e-books for research assignments. Students with documented print-based disabilities may also qualify for Bookshare, an extensive audiobook library. Ask Ms. Kitsis for more information and help getting started with any of these options!
Overview
There are several ways to access e-books through the AHS Media Center.
For research, search the Online Catalog for our e-books through Destiny Discover and Gale Virtual Reference Center. Also stay tuned for information on Ebook Central through the Commonwealth E-Book Collection coming soon!
