Textbook Borrowing Program

Vitalsource, has created a borrowing program that allows students at Bryan College of Health Sciences to borrow eBooks for free through the end of the Spring 2020 semester.

*Please note that not all Spring 2020 textbooks are available as e-books through VitalSource. Click here (Links to an external site.) to view the list of available textbooks, sorted alphanumerically by Course ID (ex. Chem 103).

Students may borrow up to 7 ebooks through May 25th, 2020. If students already have active Vitalsource titles, then they won’t need to borrow those as they will remain active from their initial purchase.
