Books, ebooks
Books and ebooks can both be found using CUNY's OneSearch from our library home page. To focus your research on collections at Hunter, search directly in our catalog for print and electronic books. Browsing the library stacks is another way to explore items available in your area of study. This can be done physically or virtually - OneSearch has the option to "browse" the shelf without leaving your computer.
Additionally, you may also search in individual ebook database. You can filter the list of Databases by Type to see what e-book databases we have available: https://library.hunter.cuny.edu/databases/type/6
