R2 Digital Library
If it is hard to imagine a library without books, then what is a digital library without eBooks? As publishers improve their technology for delivering digital books, the Greenblatt Library has begun acquiring the best available electronic texts in the health sciences. A collection of 24 new electronic texts from the Rittenhouse R2 Digital Library is the most recent addition.

R2 Digital Library is a web-based application that provides access to new eBooks in the area of Medicine, Nursing, and Allied Health. Within each content area, search options include browse by an individual book title, by a discipline list, or a quick search. Use the advance search feature for a keyword, author, book title, publisher, or editor search. An additional search option is an image only search. All images have the capability to be saved or exported.
Standard interface icon buttons are Print Section, Email, and Export Bibliographic Citation. Use the My R2 tab to view Bookmarks or Add to My References list. This tab is also used to view the current search history.
Create your own My Library Home, accessible by clicking on the tab My R2. This is an individual user name and password registration workspace for your saved search strategies, bookmarks, saved images, or references. Utilizing this resource provides quick access to material within several eBook titles.
To enter the R2 Digital Library, click the eBooks link on the Greenblatt Library home page. Links to individual titles in the collection are included in the eBooks A-Z List.
