We can't always purchase an ebook, even if you have found it available to purchase somewhere online
We have no way to purchase kindle ebooks on Amazon
If you find a book available on Amazon as a kindle ebook, there is no way for our platforms to support that format. It may be available in a format that we can support from another vendor, so feel free to send a request for the title, but please be aware that we may not be able to get it for you as an ebook.
Some ebooks are only available in packages
Some e-books can't be purchased individually because of the way they are offered for sale. Packages of ebooks are expensive, so if the only option for purchasing a single copy is as part of a package, we will most likely not be able to obtain that title.
Publishers my not allow the Libraries to purchase an ebook they have identified as a textbook.
During busy times and after hours, other librarians from our chat consortium will help you. Have a non-library question? See Contact UWM and Campus IT Support.
