The purpose of this survey is to understand and gauge student technology use to determine the viability of ebooks at community college libraries. This will help libraries plan for the possibilities of expanding library resources with electronic media.

If you need a book for a research paper, you might find it on the shelves of the Learning Commons, or you might find it through our ever-expanding E-Book collection. There’s a lot of stuff that available to you for free loan as a registered DCCC student, and there are a number of ways to find what you need. Your best bet is to start with our E-Books Library Guide, which gives you the basics on where to find E-Books and how to get them onto your computer and portable device.
Just want to browse? Try starting with our “Contemporary Issues” collection, which offers nearly 90 E-Books by reputable authors and publishers on the complex issues that touch our modern society. If you’re interested in a book, click on the title, then on the link at the top of the page for downloadable access for a portable, in-depth read.
The library needs to know what you think about e-books, whether you use them, how you use them, why you don’t use them, and more. We’ve got surveys in the libraries at the Marple, Chester, and South East Center campuses. Please fill them out to let us know what you think. If you do, you can enter a raffle for a $10 gift card to Dunkin Donuts or Wawa.
