How do I download and check out an ebook?
When connected to the internet, you can choose Read Online or PDF Full Text to read an ebook. Downloading is not required.
Most ebooks also allow downloading of pages or chapters, up to a maximum per session set by the publisher. The PDF downloads can be saved to your device and do not expire. (See the video below for a quick demo.)
To read an ebook on your computer or mobile device while you are offline, you can use the Full Download or Download Book option. Several components are required before you will be able to download an ebook in most cases:
Adobe Digital Editions free software and a personal Adobe ID
A personal account with the ebook provider
Also, the options for the length of check out can vary widely from 1 day to 21 days depending on the publisher and title. However some ebooks are now being offered DRM-free, so they will allow unlimited downloading and saving.

My username and password are not working. What should I do?
First make sure you are using the right credentials. Access to most library resources requires your Network username and password, which equates to the beginning of your university email address (before the "@") and your email password. (This is different from your VIP ID, which is 8 numbers.)
If your login is still not working, use the link below to try verifying your Network username and password. You may need to reset your Network password (even if you can access your email ) using the Account Management menu at https://myaccount.medad.com
If you are trying to access the eduroam wireless network, you must add @medad.com to the end of your Network username when logging in. (This is for the wireless network only.)
These links provide additional help with login issues. If you continue to have problems, please submit a ticket or email us.
