Library Resource Highlights

We have renewed our Evidence-Based Acquisition (EBA) eBook programs with Project MUSE and Wiley and added new programs from Cambridge University Press and Oxford University Press. These programs give the KSU community access to thousands of eBooks across many subject areas and disciplines, greatly expanding the number of titles available to students and faculty. At the end of the access period, we select titles for permanent purchase based on campus use, helping us build collections around demonstrated interest and need.

Titles are available through the publisher's eBook platforms and can also be discovered through the library catalog and discovery system.

We now have access to several new Readex collections. These resources provide historical newspapers, archival materials, and primary source content useful for research in history, political science, sociology, public policy, and related disciplines.

The collections can be searched together through Readex AllSearch or explored individually (links below).
